All -

Correct me if I am wrong, but it is my understanding that you _cannot_ retrieve the password for an AS/400 - iSeries - System i user profile. My client's security department wants us to change our password "reset" program to retrieve the user's password if they indicate *SAME, and change it to lower case. As far as I know, this is not possible...

Steve
