Automate stored credentials updates

$

Good DayLong story short and I'm pessimistic ill get a fix for this. We are using stored credentials for one of our shared data sources using a service account. The account password changes every 90 days and we are trying to automate the password reset process. Does anyone know where if possible we can access the password string (I've read from MSDN that its encrypted so i may not have any luck on this)?If we cant access the password string anywhere, does anyone know of a clever way of automating the password change outside of going through report manager every 90 days. Its getting to the stage where we have email subscriptions using the service account and every now and again, they fail to generate because the password hasnt yet been updated. Thanks in advance.
