Simple & Easy Password Protection, With the option to change password

This protects a form or program by adding a login form or protection to a form. It also includes a form which enables you to change the password.
NOTE: This should not be used as HIGH security as it can be hacked by simply looking in the registry. Good for newbies and begginers though. Please vote for me!!

Assumes
Very little knowledge required, just some knoewledge of the VB Interface, thats all.

API Declarations

NOTE: The First Password will be "", or Nothing,
as there is nothing saved to that setting in the registry untill you change the password.
NOTE: See ScreenShot for info on setting the forms
up and the controls to be put on to the forms.
