GOAL:
How does the Data Dictionary handle passwords.
FIX:
The Data Dictionary tool uses the Progress ABL function encode to encrypt the passwords that are stored in the database.
When testing any passwords entered by users the password submitted is similarly encoded and the encoded value is compared to the stored encoded value.
