  Per my other thread about enabling "Enforce Password Policy",

  http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic900763-359-1.aspx

  If I change the SQL login used by an application, meaning that the password will now have to be changed every 90 days just like our Windows accounts, does the 90 day clock start counting from when I changed the login, or will it be expired today since it was last changed a year ago ?

  Yes. From the day you change the password..
