Salut Rolf,
my problem is , the project should be able to deal with all possible
DB's.
And I don't want to force a possible user to install more then gambas.
And I know, that while dealing with open source, anybody can have a look
and debug that application, to find the pw.
So what rest for me, is not to show the key user/pw in the first look to
it.
Think about, zipping the xml, crypting the pw by one of the easy and
unsure ways to go away from plain text, or both?
But thanks to all.
