If you want to hide charactors being displayed within an edit window, subclass the entry field window with a new window procedure and then filter the CM_CHAR messages. So, if you wanted to implement something similar to the password entry field implemented within Windows 3.0 you would Process the WM_CHAR message, storing all of the char's in a string and then displaying '*'s instead of the char's sent.
