What do you mean? Have you forgotten the sql-server password? did you create a Membership database? Your own database with passwords in clear text?

The Membership.GeneratePassword Method does not returns the password for the specified user. That is impossible. Tha password is hashed with password salt using SHA-1 (by default)
