Hi,

when i check the the community article
(http://community.dynamics.com/product/gp/f/32/p/59754/108437.aspx#108437) and noticed mr.Warren Pease post to drop the table and create the and create the table of system password master. after recreate the table in the maintenance i got the error message when i access the system password option."YOUR SYSTEM PASSWORD FILE IS MISSING"
please advice how i can solve the issue or any other method for password recovery..
Thanks,
Refeesh
UPDATE DYNAMICS..SY02400 SET PASSWORD = 0x00202020202020202020202020202020
This sets it back to a blank password.
Hi susan,
good one....It helps to reset back to blank password.
As i mentioned above i got an error after dropped and recreated system password master . the table could not allow any updates/Insert, showing an error.
To solve the issue, i dropped the table SY02400 and import SY02400 Structure with data in excel from old DYNAMICS back up and created as a new table SY02400 with same data type and applied your Update statement .finally i update DYNAMICS Using database Maintenance Utility.
Its working fine now!!
advice me if any mistakes in my way of approach.
Make sure you subscribe to David Musgrave's blog. Between Mario Gomez and David you will find the answers to most technical questions you have on Great Plains.

David has an excellent article out there about: "Granting Access and Binding Defaults when recreating Tables".
I think this was your issue when you re-created and having information from these two guys is invaluable. I go out to their sites at least once a week just to see what they have discovered and what they recommend. Both have been doing Great Plains for years and are MVP's for Great Plains.
Thank you for the answer. It helps me a lot. I am newvie here. Again thank you.
