title: Hide Connection String details from End-User or Customer in Excel
body: <p>I am developing an Excel Report. All the things are working fine. I am using ODBC DSN connection type to connect with Oracle Database. The problem is that When I connect to Database then it will ask for the password. I know there is a option "Save Password" in connection wizard. But If I saved my db password then it will show to the Customer or End-User which is not good. </p>
  
  <p>What I want.. I want to HIDE the password or the whole string [Connection String] from Customer who use the Excel Sheet or view it. Is there any way to do this. I tried macro but it will transfer my file format to *.xlsm, I want to do this in *.xls</p>
