With SQL Server 2005 and above, how can I check when a user’s password is going to expire using TSQL?
Preferably this would be done using a connection for that same user. What permissions would be required for the SQL statement to be run?

In SQL Server 2008, you can use SELECT LOGINPROPERTY(‘sa’, ‘DaysUntilExpiration’).
For more accurate data – and also in SQL Server 2005, where DaysUntilExpiration is not supported, a combination of SELECT LOGINPROPERTY(‘sa’, ‘PasswordLastSetTime’) and the password expiry policy out of Group Policy would do it.
According to SQL Server help, this function ‘Requires VIEW permission on the login’.
