@Mike. Thanks I'll look at this - I knew I wouldn't have to reinvent the wheel.
However:
@Uli. My little solution actually works rather nicely (at least in Greek and English). When the user enters a new password, it overwrites the asterisks (I'll change them to bullets), and the user can see what he/she is writing. I never understood why people can't see what they are typing in. When the user subsequently moves to a new field or record, the password field is then hidden.
By the way, I've read articles and help messages you have all sent over the years, as I try to catch up with Cocoa. I find it really impressive how long you have been at it, and how long you have been helping each other, and people like me. I still find messages from 10 years ago or more that seem just as relevant and useful today.
Thanks!
