Improving the user password change dialog interface and code #671

Open Patowhiz opened 2 years ago

Currently the dialog uses the frmLogin textbox connection string to connect to the database. This textbox will eventually be removed because we now store the connection string in clsDataConnection class.

Current user feedbacks are through message boxes.

I suggest using clsDataConnection class for database connection and also using labels and message boxes to give users feedback in regards to the password changes.

I would also suggest to add a "Current Password" input text box for extra security reasons, just to ascertain that indeed the user changing the password knows the current password.
