Hi Ive been reading up on password change through oracle. I want to provide functionality for users to change their password via Oracle Forms. Was going to call password validation within the form and then use FORMS_DDL('ALTER USER...')

Will this work? Have read that OCIPasswordChange should be used over this because alter user does not support password validation - why cant I use the alter command if I call the validation first?
Also I cant find the Oracle provided file with the verify password function in it (utlpwdmg.sql ) any idea where I can find it?

Thanks

Yes sort of - got around this by calling a PLSQL package from the password form. and then in the package calling the verification routine and then changing the password if the password passed the verification.
