password editbox on Basic MSI dialogs
hi,
I am working on Basic MSI project and I need to provide a password edit field(box) on one of my dialogs, So I chosen edit field(box) and selected the "Password" property as "True" for edit field(box) then edit field(box) became "password edit field(box)", when user types something it is showing asterisks(*) symbols , my requirement is that edit field(box) should not show asterisks(*) symbols or anything this is because of security concern.
can some please tell me how to make it work that edit field should not show anything when user types something .
thanks in advance

There may not be an approach in MSI where you can stop displaying '*' even when user enters a value (password in this case).
