Password protection

Basic, I know.....
I am migrating an application from Jet to SQL (MSDE). The
database stores user ID and passords for the application.
When designing a table in SQL, ho do I st the password
field to be not viewable as in Jet it is called "password".
Hi,
Why dont you use the SQL Server Login and Users. The password column is
encryted and can not be decrypted (Highly secured).
See the topic "Managing security" in SQL server books online.

|||Hari's suggestion is valid. Let SQL Server (MSDE) manage security for you.
It gives you one less thing to worry about.
