password problems...aahhhhh....

[rctshine]

I want to passowrd protect one of my options, but it doesn't seen to work.

Here is the code I used:

elseif (nSelectedControl == CTRL_RADIO_BUTTON_03) then
	passy = Dialog.PasswordInput("Enter Password", "Password Version Password", MB_ICONQUESTION);
	pass = "pass";
	password_checked = String.Compare("passy", "pass");
if (password_checked == true) then
	rest = Dialog.Message("Notice", "Message.", MB_OK, MB_ICONINFORMATION, MB_DEFBUTTON1);
	Screen.Jump("next screen");
elseif (password_checked ~= true) then
	Screen.Jump("error");
	end
end

I don't know what the error is....but even if I enter the correct password, it sends me to the "error" page.....AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH.

Please help me....
Thanks.

Forget it, I figured it out.

I also made a way to keep track of how many times the user have tried, and limit it to three:

On Preload:

if not areacheck then areacheck = {}; end

areacheck.MaxAttempts = 3;

if(areacheckgm.AttemptCount == nil) then
	areacheck.AttemptCount = 0;
end

On Next:

elseif (nSelectedControl == CTRL_RADIO_BUTTON_03) then
real_password = "pass";
user_password = Dialog.PasswordInput("Password", "Please enter the password: ", MB_ICONQUESTION);
if real_password ~= user_password then
	areacheck.AttemptCount = areacheckgm.AttemptCount + 1;
	passno = Dialog.Message("ERROR", "Incorrect Password.", MB_OK, MB_ICONSTOP, MB_DEFBUTTON1);
if(passno == IDOK) then	
	Screen.Jump("sorry");
		-- if the user is out of retries, exit the application
	if(areacheck.AttemptCount >= areacheck.MaxAttempts) then
		Application.Exit(0);
		end
	end
end
if real_password == user_password then
	rest = Dialog.Message("NOTE", "Your Message here.", MB_OK, MB_ICONINFORMATION, MB_DEFBUTTON1);
	if(rest == IDOK) then
	Screen.Jump("whatever screen");
		end
	end
end

Hehehe.
No more errors there.....
On to the next problem....

Try this. I have not personally tested it.

Edit: Woops... too late.

elseif (nSelectedControl == CTRL_RADIO_BUTTON_03) then
	passy = Dialog.PasswordInput("Enter Password", "Password Version Password", MB_ICONQUESTION);
	pass = "pass";
	password_checked = String.Compare("passy", "pass");
if (password_checked) then
	rest = Dialog.Message("Notice", "Message.", MB_OK, MB_ICONINFORMATION, MB_DEFBUTTON1);
	Screen.Jump("next screen");
else
	Screen.Jump("error");
	end
end
