Configuration Form When Creating A Plugin

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.

As I said before it is working great, except I have run in to a snag. When a new query is run, it does not clear the data from the previous query. So if my query returns less data then the previous query I have garbage left in the array. doing a ClearVariables() before each query would work if I didn't mind losing all my other variable data, which is not an option.  My current workaround is to always look at the reported Array size and just ignore the garbage data.
