    Lightbulb Saving the password

    This one is a wonderful piece of work! I only have one concern: I use the add-in for Oracle queries and It seems to me the only way to make it work is by saving the database password.
    It might help to calm down some security concerns if the add-in would recognize the user's choice of not saving the password and would pop up a password dialog in this case.

    Hi Kallom

    Thank you for the feedback !

    The security issue is for sure one that needs to be tightened up. Have to look into this more.

    The idea of the popup for the password is great.. Will look into this asap.

    Have to rush off to work. Thanks very much.. Have a nice day

    Default I agree

    Thanks for considering this. I think that the ability to not save the password and prompt at log in is very important. Any update on when this might be available?

    Hi

    Thanks very much for the feedback.

    I am sorry but I cannot say when this will be available. I have been very busy with my day job. I know this is very important but need some time to get this in.

    I will try to look at this as soon as I can. Hopefully later in the summer.

    Thanks again - getting feedback like this is really great and helps the addin move forward.

    Bye for now
