Masking Inputs to Query Criteria Prompts..

I have a query with [ ] as the criteria for a field I use
to request a password from a database user. The poroperties
for the reaponse field suggest that the input in reply to
the criteria prompt can be masked such as ******** ..
but this doesn.t work...the password input is still visable
.....is this correct ..am i missing something..

Thanks for any help...

The only way I know to do that is to build a pop-up form with the data entry
fields needed and pull the data from that form when your query runs.
