[sroprogger]

Hello

i am programming an autologin programm for silkroad.In my GUI i have two inputboxes.One for ID and one for PW.You can give in your Id and Pw and hit the save button then the ID and PW are saved in a Config.ini.

Now to my problem:

I want that if you give in your password there should only be ***** instead of letters but in the Config.ini should stand the password you've given in.

Thx 4 help.

Remarks

To obtain the value of the control see GUICtrlRead.

To set or change information in the control see GUICtrlSet....

For defining an input control for entering passwords (input is hidden with an asterisk) use the $ES_PASSWORD style.

If you want to drag & drop a filename onto this control just add the WS_EX_ACCEPTFILES extended style on the GUICreate() and set the state to $GUI_DROPACCEPTED.

After multiple drag and drop files on this control, you can retrieve the files name which are separated by "|" with GuiCtrlRead.

Default resizing is $GUI_DOCKHEIGHT.

Well, in the GUI, the inputbox has some other flags that you can add. If you check the helpfile, it will tell you "Password character". You can use that flag to mask the password.

The INI file can be written to from the GuiCTRLread function, so it shouldn't cause a problem
