There is an input mask "password" for the control that will show the password
as ***** as it's typed. Is that what you have in mind. Bonnie http://www.dataplus-svc.com SF wrote: Hi, Access 2003, I want to implement security by allow user to login.

Encryted password field
you can also use the 'password' inputMask in the table design ... but if
you change it back, everything will show. It might be a good idea to write a routine to scramble/descramble the data ... or do not store the passwords in a table. Each user should have their own FE (Front-End). I like using database properties for information like that.
