Default password protection


Good morning Neil Pattison

To do this you are probably better off using a textbox on a userform
and set the PasswordChar property to "*". That is certainly the easier
way.

However, if you really want to continue using an input box, Daniel
Klann has devised a way to get around the problem by using a series of
API calls to intercept and translate the key presses. See his article
