Body
In the small application that I'm currently developing for a customer I need to ask the user for his windows login username, password and domain and then use those with System.Diagnostics.Process.Start to start an application. I have a textbox with UseSystemPasswordChar to mask the entered password. I need a System.Security.SecureString to feed the password to System.Diagnostics.Process.Start. How do I convert the entered text to secure string while not doing it one character after another? Alternatively: Is there a better window control to ask the user for a password that returns the entered text as SecureString?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
