Is there to modify a ppg layout string parameters so as a user type in a
password into a text field, the characters are displayed as stars? Like
"******"?

I can't seem to find anything. if it worked on Windows and Linux, that would
be great also.

Thanks

Hans

Maybe you could use dscontrol with the ES_PASSWORD style?

Search the sdk doc for dscontrol.

It looks like it could do the trick. but there's not much reference in the
SDK. I got this so far by guessing but the 3rd line fails

item = layout.AddItem("password", "", "dscontrol")
item.SetAttribute( "Class", "Edit" )
item.SetAttribute( "siUIStyle", "ES_PASSWORD")

I also tried:
item.SetAttribute( "Caption", "ES_PASSWORD") #doesn't fail but the
ES_PASSWORD doesn't do anything
item.SetAttribute( "Caption", "ES_PASSWORD= 1") #same
item.SetAttribute( "Caption", ";ES_PASSWORD= 1") #same

Any tips where I can find dscontrol info? Google isn't giving me much.

I think this is an enum value from Microsoft in c:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Include\WinUser.h.
Try to use the actual integer values.

Here's a simple example:

var ES_PASSWORD = 32;

RequestPassword();

function RequestPassword( )
{
        // Create CustomProperty
        var oCustomProperty = XSIFactory.CreateObject( "CustomProperty" );

        // Add Parameter(s) to the custom property
        oCustomProperty.AddParameter( "password", siString, siClassifUnknown, siSilent, "", "", "", "", 0, 1, 0, 1 );

        // PPG Layout
        oLayout = oCustomProperty.PPGLayout;
        oLayout.Clear();
        var oItem = oLayout.AddItem( "password", "Password", siControlEdit );
        oItem.SetAttribute( siUIStyle, ES_PASSWORD );

        // Display PPG to user
        try {
                InspectObj( oCustomProperty, null, "PPG Name", siModal );
        } catch(e) {
                return;
        }

        // Get value entered by user
        var Password = oCustomProperty.Parameters( "password" ).value;

        // Display result
        LogMessage( "Password: " + Password );

        return(0);

}

Don't forget to turn off command logging - look in the bottom left hand corner of the screen when you press OK.
