accept password without displaying input ?

Andres M. Hidalg #1 / 5	accept password without displaying input ? Is there a way in .vbs to accept input string and hiding what is typed, such as when accepting a password ?. It can be text based or GUI based. Thanks Andres

JAM #2 / 5	accept password without displaying input ? "hiding" as in completely invisible, or "hiding" as in masked (covered by stars etc)?

It can be text based or GUI based. Hi Assuming that WSH is the script host: If all your target computers have IE installed, you can use IE from a VBScript hosted by WSH to ask for a password, masking the input. When the user clicks the OK button, the vbscript retrieves the password from IE. See the function PasswordBox in this article: Subject: Re: window.open using a WSH or VB script Newsgroups: microsoft.public.scripting.wsh Date: 2002-07-10 09:36:46 PST http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&selm=3D2C... -- torgeir

JAM #5 / 5	accept password without displaying input ? <input type=password> instead of <input type=text> Does that do what you're after?
