You can change passwords for database users through Database Manager, but the DBA and Micros users will require the current password so I think you're kind of stuck there. Micros does have a way to set the DBA password in cases like this, but they're very reluctant to let people know about it and won't tell you how to do it. At best they'll remote in and set it for you. Then you can change it through DM.

If this is a "check detail read failure" problem you can log into dbisql as the custom user and run the sp_forcechkclosed() procedure to take care of it. You can set the custom user's password without entering the current one.
