As far as I know, you can't create a mask using an input
box. You'll have to create your own User Form that uses a
textbox control that has the PasswordChar property set to
something (astrisks works well most of the time).

My first usage of this newsgroup!

I would like to introduce a password in an input box to
be
runned in a macro - as part of a connection string - , to
access an external database.
For this purpose, i would like that the entry in the
input
box would be not echoed or that would show with a "*"
mask.

Does any one out there can help?

Thanks for reading it,

Vasco
