Connecting to multiple hosts using connection string

ebpzr asked:

I need to connet to database server with different hosts. I will change the host frequently by iteretaing through some data. How can i make the connection string dynamic so that i can change the host name whenever I need.

Also the username and password in the connection string is same throughout all hosts.I need to encrypt the username and password in the connection string. Please guide in this too.
