PWDCOMPARE is an undocumented function in 2000 and 2005.

To hash and compare passwords you can instead use the HashBytes()
function in SQL Server 2005. I don't think HashBytes will be
compatible with the hashes used by PWDCOMPARE.

Whenever possible please post enough code to reproduce your problem.
Including CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements usually helps.
State what version of SQL Server you are using and specify the content
of any error messages.
