  char GetPasswordChar() const;
 
  Remarks
 
  An application calls the GetPasswordChar member function to retrieve the
  password character displayed in an edit control when the user enters
  text.
 
  If the edit control is created with the ES_PASSWORD style, the default
  password character is set to an asterisk (*).
 
  Return Value
 
  Specifies the character to be displayed in place of the character typed
  by the user. The return value is NULL if no password character exists.
