I have went thru the tutorial for the plugin and have successfully created a basic plugin. Now I want to go the next step and create a plugin that has a configuration page that is accessed by clicking the gear icon but can not figure out how to do it.
The plugin I hope to create will allow the user to create a connection to a database using a DSN.

Update: One Step Closer - I found the UCConfigurationButton
Update2: Stumbled upon ptp's testplugin on github and creating a ConfigForm.cs using it as my example.
@DJ, Thank you DJ that now makes sense. I will look when I get home this evening.
@ptp, Thank you so much. I will study the code and add to my plugin project as a learning experience.
I will post how it all goes on Thursday after the site comes back up.

@ptp, I tried your plugin and all I can get is the number of hits the query received not the actual data.
Check the last example.
The function returns the number rows.
Your data is in the array variable $data_0
Add the variable monitor control and you will see the data there.
AWESOME! Thank you I looked at all examples but that one was using a different data provider so I just looked over that.
This is great ptp, thank you so much. when I complete the database brain I owe you a copy.

@ptp,
When trying to insert a record using
$sql = "INSERT INTO MemAtom (MemType, MemData) VALUES (7, '" + $varSTR1 + "')"
$varSTR1 equals one of the 2 lines.
The first line inserts correctly, the second gives me an error Syntax error (missing operator).

All the Nethinims, and the children of Solomon's servants, were three hundred ninety and two.
I wrote a VBScript to do the same thing and get the same result that tells me it is not a bug but something with my insert statement but I can not figure it out.
I can paste the line into the database just fine.
Any guess as to what my issue is? with the insert statement I mean.

@rz90208:
SQL Strings use single quotes. If your $varSTR1 contains a single quote will break the query.
That is the reason why I've implemented parameterized queries, at least for strings and numbers it will work (ez-script supported types).

PS: The forum is still in beta mode and is crippled i know the things will be fixed soon or later, for faster responses drop me an email : tiago.private AT gmail.com.
@ptp
That worked. I edited my source document and changed all ' to nothing saved the doc and all imported without error.
Not the best solution but will work. I don't think the robot will speak the word any different
