Password protecting a directory "Montrose" <montrose[ at ]+++.com> 5/20/2006 11:09:16 AM My church wants to password protect some semi-secure folders that files like parish address and phone numbers. Is the a simple inexpensive way to do this ? It doesn't need to be super secure. And only in programs like Lotuus or Outlook. -- Thank you, J. Montrose

Re: Password protecting a directory "Ken Slovak - [MVP - Outlook]" <kenslovak[ at ]mvps.org> 5/21/2006 5:48:44 PM Outlook can only password protect an entire logon or data store. If you password protect your PST file the user would have to log in at Outlook startup. There isn't a more granular method unless you get into digital rights management software, which isn't cheap and needs administration. Right-click in the Personal Folders item in the Folder List (Outlook Today) and select Properties. Click Advanced and then Change Password to add a password. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Absolute Beginner's Guide to Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 Reminder Manager, Extended Reminders, Attachment Options http://www.slovaktech.com/products.htm "Montrose" <montrose[ at ]+++.com> wrote in message news:fNCbg.39869$QU3.16773[ at ]bignews8.bellsouth.net...
