Help deciding best way...?

Hey,

I was hoping someone could help me with deciding the best way for me to do the following...

I have or rather will be making an application, this application will not be open source it will just be a exe file. The software is more a project management system that connects to a MySQL database to share information.

The information will be set by the manager of the project to connect to a certain database and then passed on with the .exe (the information being, MySQL server, user and password), obviously this information you do not want others, including anyone which is not a manager to see so i can not just stick the information in an XML file, nor could i just put it on the web in a text file.

What can i do to hide this information yet still use it?

Any ideas would be great.
Lee.
