Password Generator

[cdawley4]

I have created a database with my personal and work related passwords on them. My work related passwords expire every 60 days. The password limitations are:

a. Password must be at least 8 characters
b. Password must contain at least 1 number and 1 special character.
c. Password can be a combination of lowercase and capital letters.

Is there a way to write a script in Access to do this for me, and update my current password?

Any information would be helpful.

Thanks,

Chris

Hallo,

There should be no reason why you shouldn't be able to write a function to come up with a random password.
Updating your current password may be more tricky as being able to enter passwords via code is not good for security. Saying that though, you may be able to use SendKeys.

If you want random gobledegook passwords then that should be easy. If you want to use proper words then you'll need to have them stored somewhere.
