Default How to password protect an application

I have an application for which I want the user to use a password
before being able to use it. I want the user to be able to make up to
three tries before terminating the application.
If I use an InputBox to prompt for the password the user can click
Cancel or Close and can get to the application worksheet without using
any password.
If I use a UserForm with a TextBox to enter the password how can I
display the password TextBox up to three times without unloading and
reloading the UserForm.
If wrong password the user would get a critical MsgBox which when
clicked OK would get, up to three times, immediately back to the
TextBox to re-enter the password.
Thanks for any help,
Nathan
