Well after talking about rewriting my Access application using Dabo
way back in June I have finally got around to starting!  :-)

First hurdle after installing was working out what to actually run to
get something to appear (on Linux) but I've managed that bit.  I've
added some panels and sizers and such, that's OK.

Now I need to connect to a database and I'm a bit stuck.  In Linux do
I need to create a cnxml file myself?  That's not too bad, I've copied
the sample.cnxml file and have put my own parameters in it but it
doesn't work (yet), I'm not really an XML guru though so I there's
certainly things wrong.

What I have in the file so far is:-

    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <connectiondefs xmlns="http://www.dabodev.com";
            xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
            xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.dabodev.com conn.xsd"
        xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation = "http://dabodev.com/schema/conn.xsd";>

            <connection dbtype="MySQL">
                    <name>isbd</name>
                    <host>home.isbd.net</host>
                    <database>isbd</database>
                    <user>chris</user>
                    <password>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx</password>
                    <port>3306</port>
            </connection>


I have changed all the stuff in <connection> to match my system but
not the stuff in the header (<connectiondefs> etc.), do I need to
change the header?  (user 'chris' has admin rights on mysql)

Also how do I set the password?  It looks as if it's encrypted so how
do I get the encrypted version?
