Hello

I have added manifest file and enabled xp styles in my application.

Now, i have EDIT1 mapped to m_edt1 that have a password style.

When the application runs, the password character shows as a nice graphical
black dot.

Now if i call: m_edt1.SetPasswordChar(0) in order to remove the password
char.
Then if I call setpasswordchar('*') the black dot char never returns...

Any ideas how to swap between non password field to password field (with
that nice black dot character) ?
