Cathy,

Have you considered popping up your own form to get the password and do the
validation?  That would allow you to have an input mask.

Subject: [mso] Access 2002: Password Protect Form Button :VSMail mx4


I have the following code on the click event of a button to require a
password before the code will continue.   Can I modify this so the password
will show as  ********  when the user is typing?  There is no input mask
property available on the button.  Also, if the user enters the wrong
password, the input box closes, but the code following the End If runs even
though the form closes.  How do I get out of it and just close the box and
stay on the form so the user can do other functions?

Appreciate any assistance for either situation, thank you, Cathy

    Dim strMsg As String, strTitle As String
    Dim strPromptMsg As String, strPromptTitle As String
    Dim strPW As String
    strMsg = "You Have Entered an Incorrect Password." & _
    "Please Try Again ......."
    strTitle = " Invalid Password"
    strPromptMsg = "Please enter password to authorize data exchange!"
    strPromptTitle = " Enter Password"
    strPW = "password"

    If InputBox(strPromptMsg, strPromptTitle) = strPW Then

    Dim stDocName As String
    Dim stLinkCriteria As String

    Else

  MsgBox strMsg, vbExclamation + vbOKOnly, strTitle
  DoCmd.Close
    End If

    DoCmd.ShowToolbar "Web", acToolbarNo
    DoCmd.OpenForm "frmCallProgressBar"
    DoCmd.SetWarnings False
    DoCmd.OpenQuery "Query1_qmak_Update", acViewNormal, acEdit
    DoCmd.OpenQuery "Query2_qapp_Append_New", acViewNormal, acEdit
....etc. . . . for a series of approx 10 queries.
