If you want to hide charactors being displayed within an edit window,
subclass the entry field window with a new window procedure and then
filter the CM_CHAR messages. So, if you wanted to implement something
similar to the password entry field implemented within Windows 3.0 you
would Process the WM_CHAR message, storing all of the char's in a
string and then displaying '*'s instead of the char's sent.
