Settings to make form look like and Input Box

[lookE]

What are the settings that I need to make to have a dialog box look like the predefined InputBox? I would like to create a password login form with a text box whose property is set to 'password' (so that I can get the asterisks as the user is typing in the password). I like the look from using the InputBox function but it does not encrypt the keys pressed from displaying.

I truly appreciate any help. This has been one of the most frustrating area for me.

Thank you.
