    setup an password in folder access
    soofi:

    Unfortunately, you can't do that with a folder, in Win98. All you can do is password protect each individual document that you create. I'm not sure if you can do it with graphic files, as I never tried that, but you can do it with Word, Works, and Excel documents.
    • Click on File > Save As...
      Click on Tools, in the Save dialog box (it's located at the top right).
      Click on General Options...
      Type in a password in the Password to modify box.
      Type in a password in the Password to open box.
      Click on the Save button.

    Hope this helps.

    setup an password in folder access
    QQapple:

    I opted out of PowerPoint & Access at home on my Win XP Pro, but I did find some information with an Advanced Google Search - password protect "Access database":

    http://www.badblue.com/helpmdb.htm (the password information is down towards the bottom of the page).

    Hope this helps,
