Hi all !

I've trying to use new Oracle8 feature: password expiring. All seems to be OK, but what my application should do when password has expired ? May be it need to connect to Oracle, ask user for new password and perform ALTER USER ... IDENTIFIED BY ... statement. But connection is impossible - it cause 'ORA-28001: the password was expired' error. Any Oracle tools (SQL*Plus for expample) have own window to passowrd changing and taht window appears instead of Oracle connect error. How I can do the same within my application (I use Delphi4 + BDE) ?

P.S. Duplicate answers ( if any :( ) to my e-mail pleace...
