I have just installed MySQL and don't recall being asked for
a password or log in but now in Dreamweaver I need them to log-into
my database. Is there a generic logon I can use?

A new installation of MySQL is unsecured and permits anonymous access
(no username, no password). The default superuser is called "root", also
with no password. Even for local development, it's bad practice to leave
MySQL unsecured.
