How to display masked character on input text box?

[bruce wane]

I'm creating a window application that let user enter their password inside a text box. I am trying to figure out the coding when the user is entering his or her password inside the text box, the text box has to masked some sort of character on the text box so the user cannot see his/her password on the screen.

For example If I type in lucifer as my password it would came out in the text box as ( [xxxxxxx])
