    Ian,

    I always like the team approach!

    We really need to keep better hours. 4 am, really?

    Kind regards,

    Leslie

    Leslie's script works fine for removing the password.

    Edit: I should have refreshed before posting as I see Leslie has been able to confirm it works.

    James,

    I just tried it and it will clear the password from the budget.

    Kind regards,

    James,

    I'm not where I can test this, but using SQL you can usually blank out the password using a script like this:

    update gl00200 set budpwrd =

    0x00202020202020202020202020202020

    where budgetid = 'Your budget ID here'

    kind regards,

    Leslie
