Connection? WHAT CONNECTION?

NO, I'm not clicking that link.

Simple and easy. That dialog is for building a connection string. Locate the string and than you will see how you can change it.

What is your question?
Do you want to connect to a database from a C# application?
In that case where is your code where you are stuck?
What you are showing is just a standard connection dialog.

i need to control on this dialog Programmatically

Not sure what it is you are trying to do, but if you want to modify the contents of fields and emulate button clicks in a dialog you have some work to do.
You need to use a tool like Spy++ in order to get the ID's of each control and then you need to write code to find the handle to the dialog and send messages to the various controls.

You can use SqLConnectionStringBuilder. Create your own form for the user to enter details.
