Well you can hard code the connection string, not recommended.
You could ask for the connection details when your app starts.
If your project is a DLL you could pass it in from the calling app.

The real question for me is why don't you want it in the config file?
If it is because it is plain text then encrypt the connection string then decrypt it when you use it and only allow it to be changed from within your app.
