Boston WorkStation updates its Status box in a slow and occasional way, so the trick here is to introduce another status before the "Keying password" Status can get in. In the VBA in version 6.5 I used the following script with the demo1 application:
On Error Resume Next 'makes sure I don't hang around the Enter too long R.Enter "1001" 'I want to hide this. Note I'm directly accessing the WinScript object R On Error Goto 0 R.Status = "Hide Password" 'Overwrites the Status Rich McNeil Boston Software Systems 866 653 5105 www.bostonworkstation.com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 17, 2004 10:35 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Talk] Controlling what prints in the Status box Is there a way to do this? I'd like to keep the Status box displayed on the BWS window, but it has the bad characteristic of showing the password that's being typed. Can I selectively change or suppress what prints in the Status box? Henry Taylor Technical Analyst II Lutheran Health Network Ph. (260) 425-3914
