password error

Hi,
If you use your own form then you cannot use the standard MVD password functionality because you do not know the encryption key that it uses.  This is why your form isn't working - it saves an unencrypted password but when you try to log in, it is trying to compare an unencrypted password with an encrypted version of the password and, of course, they do not match.
Instead, you will need to create your own tables to hold user / password information and encrypt / decrypt passwords with your own encryption key.
Is there any reason why you can't just use the standard forms that MVD already provides with its password function?

I suggest using buttons to replicate the actions of the top (menu) bar instead of writing your own form - it's a lot more straightforward.
In the attachment, user 'admin' see buttons to 'maintain users' and 'change password' but user 'derek' only sees the 'change password' button.
The passwords are the same as the user IDs.

The 'menu bar' always appears on the first form in MVD.
So if you change the first form from 'Form1' to 'xxx' then you need to alter the script accordingly (ie replace 'form1.mniusers.click' with 'xxx.mniusers.click' etc etc).

It's not something you need to check for.
If MVD detects that there is no user with 'administrative privileges' (for example, if such a user has been deleted), then it automatically re-creates one.
You can try it to check it out how it works.
