Jerry 52,

user name and password for ABVFP are whatever you wish them to be. These are your own credentials to login to ABVFP in teh future. Just as you did with this forum, when you signed up: you entered your own user name and password.
Email address: the administrators' (you) email. ABVFP will use this to mail you potential error messages. The email address where the mails of the form info will be sent, are defined later, when you setup each form, and can be (if you like) more than one and even different for each form.
DB host: localhost if you are a VH customer. Other hosters might have something different.
Database name: CPusename_ABVFP . This means that if you have created a database called ABVFP and your username is abcdefgh theh the database name is abcdefgh_ABVFP . CP username MUST be your own Control Panel username.
The same for DB user: if you have created a user for the ABVFP database, and you have called this user jerry, the actual user is abcdefg_jerry.
Password: whatever you have named your password when you created the database.

Jerry, seems to me that you have not bothered to read the tutorial that came with the zip. Please take 10 minutes to read it, it is all explained there.
Not only, but, if you click on the yellow "?" that appear beside the installation wizard fields, you will get a popup with the online help on the specific topic.
