Deleting a Password from the Database 

To delete a password and its associated user class from the database, use
the DELETE PASSWORD command.  In this section, a password and its
associated user class are deleted from the ORDERS database.  Before
deleting a password, the REVIEW PASSWORDS command output looks like this:

           User Class     Password
           -----------------------

              11          CREDIT
              12          BUYER
              13          SHIP-REC
              14          SALESREP
              15          MANAGER
              18          DO-ALL

     >

In the example below, the password SHIP-REC and its associated user class
13 are deleted from the ORDERS database.  The DBCPLUS program asks if you
want the associated user class deleted.  In this example, Y is entered
for yes.  The DBCPLUS program then returns a message confirming the
deletion of the user class and password.

     >delete password SHIP-REC 13 
      Delete password user class [y/N] ? y 
      Deletion of user class and password accepted.

     >

Refer to "DELETE PASSWORD" in chapter 10, "DBChange Plus Commands," for a
detailed description of the command syntax and parameters.

If you want to verify that the password and user class are deleted, use
the REVIEW PASSWORDS command.  In the following example, you can see that
the password SHIP-REC and its associated user class are deleted from the
ORDERS database:

     >review passwords 

     REVIEW PASSWORDS:

           User Class     Password
           -----------------------

              15          MANAGER
              18          DO-ALL
