If you try enough times you will get a error dialog where it lists a number of errors.
===========================
Connection to database MySQL has failed.
Possible causes are:
*User has no grants to connect from this machine.
*DB Designer Fork does not connect to MySQL 5.* with password.
You may try connecting with a user that does not require password.
You may try connecting thru ODBC.
When reverse engineering, MySQL specific functions are recommended.
Connection to database failed.
dbExpress Error: Invalid Username/Password
===========================
In my case it looks like its because I am using MySQL 5.1.51 ..
So I tried this with ODBC and then am able to connect to MySQL with password!
This is a known error. Have you tried using ODBC?
