Changing your password

The administrator sets your password when he/she creates your IBM® SPSS® Data Collection Interviewer Server Administration user account, and can specify whether or not you may change it. Sometimes, you will be asked to change your password the first time that you log in.

If you are allowed to change your password at other times you will see an option in the Tools menu for doing so.

Administrators may change any user's password, so if you have forgotten your password you can ask your administrator to assign you a new one.

► To change your password, choose

Options > Change Password

This opens the Change Password dialog box.

► Enter your current password and the new password. Confirm the new password.

► Click Change to make the change and close the dialog box.

Changing other peoples' passwords

If you run Change Password as an administrator, the dialog box that is displayed has a User Name text box in which you select the name of the user whose password you want to change. There is no prompt for the user's existing password as this may not be known. Just enter and confirm the new password.
