Getting user password

I have made a asp.net 2.0 homepage with a number of users.
My problem is that I cannot remember what password I gave each of them.

How to I retrive a password that I gave a user?

Thanks Torben

Why dont you just change the passwords and issue new ones. Passwords are
normally incredibly difficult to recover.

Thanks John

I wanted to do that. But if I enter "Edit user" the only thing I can change
is the e-mail and description.
Is there a simple way to assign a new password?

Well I guess that depends on what type of password system your using. If
its Active Directory then get your domain admin to change it. If its forms
based it will probably be in a database somewhere.
