Logon Box
Hi,
Im very new to this language but I really want to learn it, i started making a program a litttle to addvance for me, but i want it completed. I have made a Logon Box where you input your Username and Password, and i want the program then too save the username and password as a text file on the harddrive or floppy disk so i can go back to it later. Is this possible? Thanks |

Well there are numerous ways to do this. The simplest is just to draw two textboxes, one with the PasswordChar (Mask) set to * and an OK button. When it's clicked you just need to save the results in whatever way, a sequential file would do, but that'd be a security risk as it could be viewed with notepad.
If you could describe what your program does more specifically that'd be helpful. |

a db is best. that way average users can't view the password file.
