W7, can password login be turned off?

Any way to get rid of password login on W7, when you first turn it on it requires password to finish booting up. Would like for it to boot up with out having to type in password every time.
Thanks

Same way we've done it on XP for years. Open Run in the Start Search box and type: control userpasswords2 in the Run box. Uncheck the box for Requiring password at logon. You should also go to the Power Options/advance tab and uncheck the password box on return from Standby/sleep mode.

Thanks, that's basically what I did, I searched google before I posted here and found nothing, after I posted here I did another search and found this:

And it worked.
Thanks
