Hi Bruce,
I too, am having the exact same issue. I have given up trying to import the 1500 entries that I have and have been testing it by creating a nice clean access database with one record, with username and password typed in clear text - and I still can't login in with the password.
The username is obviously OK, because I can request a new password to be sent, which works fine. I read in this post that this facility works fine in your testing, so I was wondering if you could send me a single record DB that DOES work for you, so I can compare yours with mine. I am using Access 2002 and both the username and password are default text fields (50 chars). Is there a way of reversing the encryption so I can see what is being stored? I guess not ...
Anyway, if I could just make it work for a single text record, that would give me a clue as to what I am doing wrong - thanks
