Hi, I'm hoping someone could help me with this problem. We have two domain
controllers that we can log into. We are also running Exchange 2003. In Outlook 2002 there was a "change password" button that came back on the login box. The box had username, password, and domain and at the bottom it had Ok, Cancel and Change Password. In Outlook 2003 there's only username and password. In the username you put domain\username but the only two buttons at the bottom are Ok and Cancel. Does anyone know what happened to the "Change Password" button or where does one go to change the password. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Kathy |

Changing your password is now done via the operating system; press
Control+Alternate+Delete and click the "Change Password" button.

You are correct but our Exchange server and our domain controller are in two
separate domains. We log into one domain and then we launch Outlook and log into another domain. I hope this makes sense.

There is a place to change the password for in Outlook 2003. It may
work in your situation. ToolsOptionsOtherAdvanced OptionsCustom FormsPassword I was able to reset my Exchange account password this way. Worked for me but might not in all situations. I'd also like to thank MS for taking a simple "Change Password" button and burring it 7 layers deep. And they wonder why so many people switch to Linux... |

Thank you so much. I think this will work for us. Unfortunately I can't change my password on my domain because of certain app rights but I've sent this on to our other domain users to give it a shot. It looks like it would work. After weeks of researching you have solved our problem. Thanks Kathy "Louis" wrote: There is a place to change the password for in Outlook 2003. It may work in your situation.

Yes, Louis, that worked. Thank you very much. Glad I checked in here and
saved myself months of research too. Strangely, none of the online articles give this workaround. Might be sometheing Micro$$oft might want to consider publishing. I work on an Exchange server, and ther are several levels of support staff that I want to access to my Outlook, but I don't want them have all my other rights on the network. Being able to have a separate Outlook password is very helpful because they now can have access via webmail. Again, thanks for your post. anthony "Louis" wrote: There is a place to change the password for in Outlook 2003. It may work in your situation.
