Someone else has been working towards the same end. He'd added an extra field to the members table to record who's updated and who hasn't. In inc_header.asp he checked to see if they'd updated, and if they hadn't, they were re-directed to the profile page to update their profile.

You might want to look into something similar....<

I'm not sure I'd want to go that route... someone may take advantage of it if you reset everyone's password to the same thing. And I'm not sure I'd want to reset that many unique passwords. <

I suppose you could also rehash the existing password one time only with a code change.<

cool mod, but I'm getting the following error:

Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a03ea'

Syntax error

/forums/admin_config_system.asp, line 245

'### start PWORD MOD###

okay, i fixed this by removing the &_ from the line above and adding Response.Write to the line below '### start PWORD MOD###

" <a href=""#top"">" & getCurrentIcon(strIconGoUp,"Go To Top Of Page","align=""right""") & "</a></font></td>" & vbNewLine '& _
'### start PWORD MOD### (commented out &_ above per this mod)
Response.Write " </tr>" & vbNewLine & _


I did the same at the end of the MOD. This solved the problem.
However, I only did this because someone suggested I do this same thing when I was having a similar problem with another piece of code. I don't know ASP or VB and have no idea what this means or what I did. I'm glad I worked, but could someone please write on whether this is a viable solution? It fixed the problem, but I just want to make sure this was the correct thing to do in this case.<

Run through some of the tutorials here: http://www.w3schools.com/asp/

The "&" is used to concatenate two strings together. The "_" is used to indicate that the current line of instruction continues on the next line. So "& _" tells the interpreter that you want it to treat the next line like its part of this line.<
