refresh Query table using own password for each username
 

If you set the querytable properties (right-click on the query data range and
choose "Properties...") you can tell it to remember the password. Or, you
can have your macro edit the QueryTable.Connection property, which has the
connection string; this normally contains the user ID (UID) and password
(PWD); however be advised that with either of these approaches anyone with a
knowledge of VBA could potentially discover your user id and password by
examining the connection string. If security is an issue you should perhaps
set up a different account on the database giving access to only the queries
you need your users to run and use that account rather than your own!

Instead of configuring an ODBC connection on the Machine tab try configuring
an ODBC connection on the User tab.

If you are using Oracle integrated security, then the username is a
forward-slash.

While experimenting, you may find my Query Editor add-in useful - available
on my website.
