Dushyant gave the good solution.

can you explain clearly what you want?...

i m not getting exactly what you expect. i think u want like login page.

if you want to pass user id and pwd into the application using input box,

upto my knowledge its not possible

Hello,

Such a thing is not possible in QlikView. An inputbox is intended for introducing values for variables, so variables store those values.

Any change you do in formats will make the value of the "password" variable not matching, and so any conditional related not working. It's like drawing characters in white... You don't see them, but just a selection with the mouse will reveal the password.

If you really need security and hide passwords, use Section Access.

Hope that helps.
