    Password with one time use

    My question is really two questions:

    1) How can you make a password prompt without a popup?

    2) I'm pretty clear with how to password protect an application, but I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to make passwords usable only once?

    What I want to do is to have an array of passwords, that go invalid once they're used.
    Any advice?

    1) How can you make a password prompt without a popup?
    if you dont want a popup then use some input objects and a button and hide them after use, or have a login/password page


    2) I'm pretty clear with how to password protect an application, but I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to make passwords usable only once?
    store the passwords in a text file (each one on a new line) and read the file to a table, use a for loop to check the password entered by the user against the ones in the table, if/when a match is found then remove that table index and write the table back to the same.

    EDIT: I would advise encrypting the text file or passwords
