Hi Tim,



Thanks for the idea.



In this case, I just want to display so values (actually: registration numbers) in a "masked font"



There is no entry for this particular portion of this feature

Hi Tim,



Thanks for this,



I checked through ALP 9.7 docs and couldn't find anything.



The fact that they say it is hopeful!

Randy,



We convert all values into asterisks. We just check as each character is

entered, and store that value into a hidden variable, then replace the

screen value with the asterisk.

There have been discussions about the old password font: %password.



This doesn't work in ALP (v9.x)



I'm using it to mask data in ALP



Anybody know a font to use or other technique?

Bob,



Thanks for the idea,



I want to give the user the impression that there is actually some

information present.
