Re: capture oracle pwd change in 3rd party application. help needed

The hex approach will work as it is an DDL command, the hex is the hashed password and the hashes for the same passwords are the same on every platform. Try it and see!!, create the same user with the same password on both databases and then

select username,password
from dba_users
where username='YOUR_USER';

kind regards
Pete
