I recently set up security in Access (a nightmare in itself). I must have
missed something. I'd like to be able to set up a macro or button or
something that will allow them to click to get to the change password
dialogue box to change their password, but I haven't been able to figure it
out so far. Does anybody have any suggestions? Thanks.

In Access:
TOOLS-->SECURITY-->USER GROUPS AND PERMISSIONS.

They can login as their account and then enter their
current, new, then confirm the new.
