Not one that I've ever known of. That would be a huge security
hole...imagine walking up to any-ol' SQL Server instance and setting your
own 'sa' password.

Hello, All

Is there a way to change the sa password in SQL 2005 without knowing the
existing password?
I tried everything I can find online to change the password but nothing
works.

This is on my test server so I am opened to anything.

Thank you.
