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

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

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.
