Binary column

We have a binary column that stores web passwords.
What is the proper way to access this column?
The sql below is blowing up!
UPDATE AppServices.dbo.DBUsers
SET Password = 'MyPassword'
WHERE UserId ='MyLogin'Here is one way to accomplish this task.
UPDATE AppServices.dbo.DBUsers
SET Password = pwdencrypt('MyPassword')
WHERE UserId ='MyLogin'
pwdencrypt and pwdcompare are two undocumented SQL functions.
