#### PASSWORD# command

Specifies passwords for logging on to SQL, ODBC, or password-protected databases used by the report.

    PASSWORD#=<password>
    «<password> is a string.»

For example:

`password0=secret`

If the report accesses more than one password-protected database, multiple passwords can be passed by incrementing the index number. For example:

`password0=secret&password1=mystery&password2=unknown`

PASSWORD# is normally used in conjunction with the USER# command. For example:

`user0=SmithJ&password0=secret&user1=JohnS&password1=mystery`

If the report contains subreports that require passwords for logging on to SQL or ODBC data sources, use the following syntax in the URL:

    password@subname#=<userid>
    «subname is the name of the subreport.»

For example:

`user0@Crosstab=jimmys&password0@Crosstab=jimmyz`

Note: Make sure passwords appear in the URL in the same order in which the password-protected databases appear in the report. Additionally, if passwords are not passed using the URL address, the user is prompted for logon information at runtime.
