NEditControlSubclass: None
CPasswordEdit provides a native password-type text control. It uses a special validator (see CValidatorFactory and CValidator to filter keystrokes at the PTK level. Use GetTitle() to get the password or use TDI, as in the example below, to continually advise an object of the password. You can specify a character as the password character (by default: "*"). This is the character that appears in the edit control as the user types the password. You can also specify the maximum length of the password. If the user exceeds this length, the extra characters are ignored. CPasswordEdit is copy/paste safe; the user cannot copy the password from the edit field and paste it somewhere else where it might be visible.
