database connection problem

When we set up the trial version of the cart, we chose the first option for the database connection: "Specify database - this option would typically be used if you are using Microsoft SQL Server 2000 or 2005 and have already created a new blank database and user with permissions to read/write. Enter the server name or IP, database name, database user, password, and select the database type."

The database password was just changed and now we can not access the store pages. Where can we update the database password in AbleCommerce so we can get things back on track? Thanks in advance for any info.

I can't log in to any pages of the store (including admin). I get: "Server Error in '/' Application : Login failed for user "

I was hoping I could avoid re-installing the program. Is this possible?
