The user input normal text, eg. 'Computer', into text box. The user still see the normal text. Then, when he click [Save]. The box will convert to encryed text, eg. '%$@!*8', automatically to save it in table. When retrieve it to read, the box will convert it back to 'Computer' and let the user read it. The box is very useful for security propose. Althought someone steal the data or program, he can't read it without password.

Any suggestion are appreciated.

>>>If you are using a 'Next' button then you must be doing some processing to get the next record - in here you can specify the color of the textbox before you refresh it. I'm not sure if you can specify it as xxx,xxx,xxx - if not, it is stored as a very long number (try manually changing to red-on-white then writing the value to a variable and use debugger to display the variable - this will tell you what to change it to). Then your 'Next' button can change the foregroundcolor of the textbox.
