asp.net - Generate random alphanumeric string into password field

Question

I want to generate a random alphanumeric string into password field when click a button.

<asp:TextBox ID="txtPassword" runat="server" TextMode="Password"></asp:TextBox>

code behind the button

var chars = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789";
var stringChars = new char[8];
var random = new Random();

            for (int i = 0; i < stringChars.Length; i++)
            {
                stringChars[i] = chars[random.Next(chars.Length)];
            }

var finalString = new String(stringChars);

txtPassword.Text = finalString.ToString();

this execute without any error.. but does not appear any text in textbox. When I use

<asp:TextBox ID="txtPassword" runat="server"></asp:TextBox> 

This works properly..

I have no any idea why my code is not working..

Please help me to solve this problem...

If you want to add text to password mode textfield then you need to write.

txtPassword.Attributes.Add("value", finalString.ToString());
