I'm a newbie in vb. My first project is a grading system for a certain school. In my login form, there's a Forgot Password button. In the Forgot Password form, the user is asked to answer a secret question that he filled up upon registration, and if the answer is correct it will lead him to a Change Password form. My problem is, I don't know how to get then delete and then replace the password of a certain user. I attached some screen shots of my work. Please someone help me.. Thank you..

Hello, charie ty,
I am very sorry to tell you, but I believe that it is not possible to do directly do what you are asking. Access does not provide any "back door" that will allow you to reset a user's password. I think that your only options are:- Tell the user, "Sorry. Be more careful next time.
- Record the user's password in your own list when they create or change it. (Of course, this list should be encrypted.) This would provide you with the necessary "back door" to allow you to either tell the user their password, or reset it.
Cheers,
Randy
