Questions are a good thing. That's why we are here.
What I have done with password stuff in the past is to call the person ahead of time and told him the pattern I would use in an email. For instance, the first two characters of each paragraph.
But that kind of limits the password. It would be hard to justify starting a paragraph with !$. So I also make sure the person has to change his password the first time logging in.
Ultimately, if you have to use email you should be sending passwords through encrypted email.

I can link to the SQL Server database with an Access data project using the server name, database name, login name and password that I have been given, but when I try to connect to SQL Server through SSMA using the same information, I get this message:
