To specify the Geneticist Assistant password requirements
When Geneticist Assistant is first installed, by default, the Username is set to Administrator, and you must specify an administrator password. The only requirement is that the password cannot contain any spaces. You can also specify the following minimum requirements for your user passwords: Length, Number of upper and lower case characters, Number of numeric characters, and/or Number of special characters.
1. On the Geneticist Assistant main menu, click File > Settings.
The Settings dialog box opens. The General tab is the open tab.
2. Open the Password Settings tab.
A default value is provided for each password setting.
3. Modify any or all of the default values for the user password requirements.
 | You can click Reset Defaults at any time to reset all password settings to their default values in a single step. |
4. If you are done specifying your settings, then click OK to close the Settings dialog box and return to the Geneticist Assistant main window; otherwise, continue to add and/or edit the information on any of the other tabs as needed.
