    PasswordChar Property (GcTextBoxCellType)
    In This Topic
    Gets or sets the character used as a placeholder for the characters typed by the user.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
 

    Public Property PasswordChar As Char
    'Usage
 

    Dim instance As GcTextBoxCellType
Dim value As Char
 
instance.PasswordChar = value
 
value = instance.PasswordChar
    public char PasswordChar {get; set;}

    Property Value

    The character used to mask characters entered in a single-line control. Set the value of this property to 0 (character value) if you do not want the control to mask characters as they are typed. Equals 0 (character value) by default.
    Remarks

    The PasswordChar can be used to create a password field in a dialog box. Although you can use any SBCS character, most Windows-based applications use the asterisk (*) (Chr(42)).

    This property does not affect the GcTextBox.Text property. GcTextBox.Text contains exactly what the user types or what was set from code. Setting the PasswordChar to 0, which is the default, will display the actual text in the control.
