You are using the wrong property. PasswordChar is the character used to hide the password on the screen. See Using the Text Box Control

PasswordChar specifies the character displayed in the text box. For example, if you want asterisks displayed in the password box, you specify * for the PasswordChar property in the Properties window. Regardless of what character a user types in the text box, an asterisk is displayed

You can get the value using the Text property.
