I'm going to be changing the password policy on my 2003 Active
Directory domain. It's going to be changed to require complex
passwords. I'm trying to chase down whether or not an account with
'Passwords do not expire' set will have to change it's non-compliant
password.

Thank you for any assistance

That particular policy change will not force any changes of passwords.
Rather, when an account needs to, or elects to, change its password,
then the new complexity rules will be in force for that change.
