hello,
I tried getting a difficult password for my db, and i used many characters such as

!"£$%^&*()_#@~

But when i run my web application from my connection string, I get the error invalid characters,

What characters can be used in an MS SQL password

Its very well mentioned in the knowledge docs along with installation.
Search for rules for password.
