Promt User for Input Function - Password Protection

I have an application feature that I would like to password protect.  The feature is already inplemented and is functioning perfectly.  The problem I've run into though is in the setup of the LabVIEW function "Prompt User for Input".  A space is given for as many inputs as you would like, I've got 2 - one for the username, one for the password.  I am aware that string controls can be "star'd" out to block passwords, however in this popup to the user - there is no option to block the view of the password.
 
How can I implement this authentication in a popup window where, one input field is flagged as a password?

You can convert the express vi into a normal VI.

Right-click the express vi and select 'show front panel' this will convert the code into a normal VI. Then you have the option to edit the control panels.
