            DataTable dt = new DataTable();
            sda.Fill(dt);
            con.Open();
            int i = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
            con.Close();

            if (dt.Rows.Count > 0)
            {
                Welcome_Form settingsForm = new Welcome_Form();
                settingsForm.Show();
            }
