Answer 1

The literal answer is; no. You can't make a password form autofill. However, you can set up your connection string so that no one has to fill it in.

'Set up the connection string
        strConn = "PROVIDER=SQLOLEDB;DATA SOURCE=MyServerName;INITIAL CATALOG=MyDatabaseName;UID=MyStandardUserID;PWD=MyStandardPassword;"
        cnComments.Open strConn

You can also set it up without the username and password:

'Set up the connection string
        strConn = "PROVIDER=SQLOLEDB;DATA SOURCE=MyServerName;INITIAL CATALOG=MyDatabaseName;TRUSTED_CONNECTION=yes;"
        cnComments.Open strConn
