I would suggest debugging starting with line bool Authenticated=f alse;.

Your function returns a STRING value which you are trying to assign to a BOOL datatype.
Change your function to return type "bool" or changed your Authenticated variable to "string" type and make other changes to support the string.

Based on how you coded your function I would change this:

private string VerifyPassword(string UserName,string Password)

to

private bool VerifyPassword(string UserName,string Password)
