EM_SETPASSWORDCHAR
An application sends an EM_SETPASSWORDCHAR message to set or remove the
password character for a single-line edit control when the user types text. When a
password character is set, that character is displayed in place of each character
the user types.
EM_SETPASSWORDCHAR
wParam = (WPARAM) (UINT) ch; // character to display
lParam = 0; // not used; must be zero
Parameters
ch
Value of wParam. Specifies the character to be displayed in place of the character typed by
the user. If this parameter is zero, the characters typed by the user are
displayed.
Return Values
This message does not return a value.
Remarks
When the EM_SETPASSWORDCHAR message is received by an edit control, the edit
control redraws all visible characters by using the character specified by the ch parameter.
If the edit control is created with the ES_PASSWORD style, the default
password character is set to an asterisk (*). This style is removed if an
EM_SETPASSWORDCHAR message is sent with the ch parameter set to zero.
