Help on changing the PW on SQL2000

Hi, all,
I got a problem to change the users' password from the VB
side. It is almost same as one from SQL7, and it works on
SQL7 but I have problem on SQL2000. It is ok when I run it
from QA, what's wrong? Do I need set ANSI NULLS?
Any one can help? Thanks you very much and have a good one

Here is the Stored procedure i wrote if it is sysadmin
to change others PW, the login will be the person who PW
will be changed, otherwise, the person changes his own PW,
in this case, login will be ' ')
CREATE PROCEDURE I_USER_CHANGE_PASSWORD_SP
(
@.LOGIN NVARCHAR(10)=' ',
@.OLDPASSWD NVARCHAR(10),
@.NEWPASSWD NVARCHAR(10)
) AS
DECLARE @.OUT INT
IF @.LOGIN <>' ' BEGIN
EXEC @.OUT = sp_password NULL ,
@.NEWPASSWD,@.LOGIN
END
ELSE BEGIN
EXEC @.OUT = sp_password
@.OLDPASSWD,@.NEWPASSWD
END
RETURN @.OUT
GO
****************************************
**************
The VB side code like this:
Set adoCommand = CreateObject("ADODB.Command")
mySQL = "I_USER_CHANGE_PASSWORD_SP "
With adoCommand
.ActiveConnection = strCnn
.CommandText = mySQL
.CommandTimeout = 100
.CommandType = adCmdStoredProc
.Parameters.Append .CreateParameter("RETURN",
adInteger, adParamReturnValue)
If SecurityLevel < 2 Or Trim(Me.txtLogin) =
userName Then
.Parameters.Append .CreateParameter
("Login", adWChar, adParamInput, 10, " ")
.Parameters.Append .CreateParameter
("OldPasswd", adWChar, adParamInput, 10, Trim
(Me.txtOldPassword))
Else
.Parameters.Append .CreateParameter
("Login", adWChar, adParamInput, 10, Trim(Me.txtLogin))
.Parameters.Append .CreateParameter
("OldPasswd", adWChar, adParamInput, 10, Null)
End If
.Parameters.Append .CreateParameter
("NewPasswd", adWChar, adParamInput, 10, Trim
(Me.txtNewPassword))
End With
adoCommand.Execute
OUT = adoCommand(0)
If OUT <> 1 Then
MsgBox "Change password successfully",
vbInformation
Else
MsgBox "Sorry,Changing password failured",
vbInformation
End If
Set adoCommand = Nothing
****************************************
******************Below is a VBScript code snippet that shows how to execute a proc with
parameters. This way, you don't have to build the SQL with properly quoted
strings.
Set cmd = CreateObject("ADODB.Command")
Set cmd.ActiveConnection = connection
cmd.CommandType = 'adCmdStoredProcedure
cmd.CommandText = "sp_addlogin"
Set pReturnCode = cmd.CreateParameter("@.RETURN_CODE")
pReturnCode.Type = adInteger
pReturnCode.Direction = 4 'adParamReturnValue
cmd.Parameters.Append pReturnCode
Set pLoginName = cmd.CreateParameter("@.loginame")
pLoginName.Type = adVarWChar
pLoginName.Direction = adParamInput
pLoginName.Size = 128
pLoginName.Value = "MyLogin"
cmd.Parameters.Append pLoginName
Set pLoginName = cmd.CreateParameter("@.passwd")
pLoginName.Type = adVarWChar
pLoginName.Direction = adParamInput
pLoginName.Size = 128
pLoginName.Value = "MyLoginPassword"
cmd.Parameters.Append pLoginName
cmd.Execute
'display return code
MsgBox cmd.Parameters(0).Name & "=" & cmd.Parameters(0).Value
connection.Close
Hope this helps.
