Using a default value in a Data Entry field Mar 13, 2014 By Julie S I am creating a software simulation. I have created a computer monitor and a login screen. I'd would like people to enter their user name and password. When the user types in a password I'd like to default each key entry to show in the data entry field as * . I don't want to show the true value. Is this possible using the Data Entry Field and some triggers? Is there another approach I should consider? Are there other forums that have tackled this question?
