<BrowsableAttribute(False)>
Public Shadows Property UseSystemPasswordChar As Boolean

Dim instance As FilteringTextBoxCell
Dim value As Boolean
 
instance.UseSystemPasswordChar = value
 
value = instance.UseSystemPasswordChar

[Browsable(false)]
public new bool UseSystemPasswordChar {get; set;}

Property Value

true if the cell uses the system password character; otherwise, false. The default is false.

Remarks

The UseSystemPasswordChar property determines whether user-supplied input should be displayed in the cell as multiple occurrences of a password character defined by the operating system. This property has precedence over PasswordChar.

Important:
As a security consideration, the FilteringTextBoxCell disables cut and copy operations on password-protected strings.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
