The Confirm Password function is used to display the standard Confirm Password dialog box (see Define the Password for a User in the ClearSCADA Guide to Security). When the user enters their password, ClearSCADA compares that password to the password of the logged on user’s account. If the passwords are the same, the ConfirmPassword function returns True; if they are different, an error message is displayed. The ConfirmPassword function only returns False if the user selects the Cancel button.
