I am trying to offer a feature where members who have forgotten their password can enter their user login into a form and receive their password by email. Anyone know how to do this? The usernames and passwords are stored in an Access database--the same used to log users into the site.

Use members login name to filter database and retrieve password. Once you get the password, send it using CDONTS.
