When entering a value in a text box at run time, you may set the Mask text property so that the text is not displayed as text, but masked by default characters. This is recommended when using passwords or other sensitive information.

1. Select the Edit Box object to view the associated properties in the Properties panel.
2. From the Mask text property field, select Yes.
3. Run the report and enter a value in the text box.

The value being entered appears as masked text.
