Oracle's 8i and newer ODBC drivers support changing passwords;
when a password has expired (from an Oracle profile setting), the
ODBC driver displays a dialog box with one old password prompt
and two new password prompts.

Note: - may get an application error since the new password is
not passed back to the application (may need to have user login
again using their new password).

Web page note: need to be careful in coding the password
reset routine to prevent users from changing other user
passwords (e.g. system).

Have Fun :)
