Maybe something like this isn't doable, and I haven't looked at this stuff for a while, but it seems that there's an easier way..
Can't you use keyDownEvent to catch that a character has been entered, then either handle the event yourself by writing '*' to the field, or set event->data.keyDown.chr = '*' and let the event handler write the asterisk? Comments in one of my programs note that keyDownEvent gives you the character before it is added to the field, so something like this ought to be possible. Sean. --- Sean L.
