Problem of permission when adding a new database connection

[mhabimana]

There is a problem of permission when adding a new database connection,see below screenshot of the error message. The only way to add a new database connection is to add this manually in the configuration file,which is not a good practice.

The database connection details are now stored in the windows registry.

However, the software still checks for the config.inf file incase there are settings there that need to be remembered from an old version of Climsoft (but it doesn't update/write to the config.inf file anymore).

I'll take a look at the code and see what might be happening.

@iedwards - It is now working well. Apparently,it was my installation,I had to uninstall Climsoft and re-install it again on my PC. Thought under "Connection name; it is not accepting a space when naming a connection ("e.g: it will not accept something like this: "Default Database" but rather "Default_Database" or "DefaultDatabase",so one word or if two,put an underscore between the two words.

@isedwards the default name (i.e. Default database) need to be initially joined. It won't adding another database if it isn't.
