I have a small application in ms access that needs to connect to sql server database for certain data and process that information. Is there a way to retrieve the lan password of a specific user id to be able to connect to the sql server database using that user id and password. Thank you for your help in advance.

I assume you are using a DSN. When you set it up it gives you the option of signing in with a name and password or trusted connection.

If the person is a user on the SQL Server database it will let them in.
