Michael,

Try the following in the field script:

on keydown whichKey
  global thisPassword
  put whichKey after thisPassword
  put "*" after field "password"
end keyDown

on backspaceKey
  global thisPassword
  put empty into field "password"
  put "" into thisPassword
end backspaceKey

on deleteKey
  global thisPassword
  put empty into field "password"
  put "" into thisPassword
end deleteKey

on returnInField
  send mouseUp to btn "Next"
end returnInField

Then check the global variable for the contents of the field. You could
probably set a custom property for the field as well.

Subject: ask password


Is there a way to implement the ask password command but in "regular"
MetaCard stack  flds- not just the ask dialog substack?  I can't find
any documentation on the mcencrypt function that is used in the ask
dialog stack's OK button.
