Here's the answer, straight from the online docs:
setEchoChar
public void setEchoChar(char c)
Sets the echo character for this TextField. This is useful
for fields where the user input shouldn't be echoed to the
screen, as in the case of a TextField that represents a
password.
Parameters:
c - the echo character for this TextField

echoCharIsSet, getEchoChar
