Prompt credentials when reloading the data via ODBC connection

We have multiple users accessing the same document and reloading the data.
In order to reload the data , each user needs to change the connection string in the scrip editor,
So is there a way we can have a prompt asking for credentials each time Qlikview tries to connect to the Database
current connection string:
ODBC CONNECT32 TO [DB_NAME;DBQ=DB_NAME] (XUserId is IONEQSVGYKDFTYAHHE, XPassword is POidYGvERTbATYQb);
Thank you.

Recreate the Connect String, but when doing so untick Save Password.

Try to remove credentials from the CONNECT statement, keep this:

ODBC CONNECT32 TO [DB_NAME;DBQ=DB_NAME]
