DB connection dialog?

You know that handy dialog that pops up when you drag and drop a
DataAdapter onto your form? The very first one that builds the
connection string?

Is that exposed somewhere? I'd like to use it in one of my own
applications.

Yes, but you can't grab the password that the user enters, unless they
click on the Allow Saving Password checkbox.

Then they'd best enable "Allow Saving Password" unless they want to
supply it runtime. ;)
