Password character - round dots

After creating my windows form app on Vista,
I came across with various GUI dilemas.
I am artistically challenged and my password box shows a *, while everywhere in Vista it shows those big beautiful Dots, making my app look ancient.

Thanks to this site I got the colution
set the password char to be (char)00x25CF

And wallah, im into metal age from the dark ages
cheers
