PRODUCT: 4D | VERSION: | PLATFORM: Mac & Win
Published On: March 24, 2000

To change the font style of a field or a variable to a password style font, (also known as a password font), you must use the FONTcommand.
Example code:

FONT([person]name;"%password")

When you enter a value into a field, the display will no longer be seen as alphanumeric characters, but as asterisks.
