New Password problem
Posted: Wed Sep 30, 2020 6:15 pm
For years I have had no problem with password. In my .RC file, I use the following line:
EDITTEXT 102,240,135,80,10,ES_PASSWORD
In my login program I use:
REDEFINE GET cPass ID 102 OF login
Suddenly, in FWH 20 08 when typing in the password, it allows no entry. Normally we would see dots for each character. The entry is not hidden. You simply cannot enter anything into the password field. As soon as I remove the ES_PASSWORD from the resource, it becomes a normal GET field.
So, how do we fix this change. I see that MsgGet() dealt with this change ( though not explained ) but found no other notes.
