Is it possible to put a password on an individual file or maybe on documents file? I'm running windows xp.

Depends on what type of file. Many file types do have password protect options. What type of file would you like to password protect?

Sorry I'm new to computers ( 2yrs ). I wrote a message in Word and saved it in Documents. I want to protect it with a password. I'm not sure what you mean by what type of file?

You answered the question correctly. By type of file I meant what program made the file.

For Word, your protection options are under Tools > Options > Security. There you have options to create a password to open or modify a file.

i think u can protect any ms office file with the password by clicking the protect file.. and i don`t understand what type of file u want to protect.. if u want to protect any folder.. there are some folderlocker softwares u can use them
