Change windows user account password

Hi All,

Can any one tell me how to change windows user account password
by programmatically using C#? I don't have administrator privileges and I
want to change my account password by programmatically.

I will be thankful if you can provide a sample program.

Thanks in Advance,

Srikanth

I think you'll have to P/Invoke into NetUserChangePassword.
