This tool looks great much easier than using MMC's

But would like to suggest a idea which would be cool if possiable

We have a XML file with all the default passwords of everyone in a secure area only accesiable by the helpdesk staff members

In the file is there useraccount name and then password field

What would be good instead of having G button have a D button for default password

so when you search for a user in password control then press d button it searches the xml file for the account name and adds the default password field into the change password box

Would be loads better than using my other xml search tool to look for password to reset too.

I would guess that searching an XML file for a default password is likely to be a fairly unique requirement. One option at the moment is to write a script to be used with the "Tools" feature. e.g. The script could search the XML file for the default password and apply the password reset. See here for more info.

In future I might look at allowing users to extend the "G" button via some scripting interface. e.g. You might be able to write some code to return the default password from an XML file. Other users might get the password from a database or simply use their own password generation algorithm.

Thanks,

David
