change "did you forget your password" message...
Is there a way to change this anywhere? I really find it annoying. NO I
DIDN'T FORGET IT, I JUST TYPED IT WRONG BY MISTAKE!!!! I really can't stand things like that. I'd rather it just pop up a message saying "wrong password".That's all it needs to do. It's like the automated phone systems that try to sound too much like there's a real person on the other end. Too condescending for my taste. So anyway, if there's a way to change the message, I'd love to know about it. :-) Thanks, -keith |

Modify the message, being certain to keep the LENGTH of the characters exactly the SAME. e.g. pad with spaces if necessary. Length must not change. Save it. It may appear more than once in the file. There's no other way to do it unless you are a programmer. Twayne` |

Exit Registry and Reboot "Twayne" wrote in message ... "Keith" wrote in message Is there a way to change this anywhere? I really find it annoying.
