ASSIGNING SECURITY OPTIONS
Your handheld includes a Security application that allows you to protect entries from unauthorized users in a variety of ways:
The Security application lets you:
• Mask or hide entries you have defined as private. The Mask option displays a gray bar over private records, and the Hide
option completely removes (hides) private records.
• Assign a password to viewing options to enhance security. Assigning a password requires you to enter a password before
private entries can be viewed; not assigning a password lets you view private entries when you Show Records from the
Security dialog box.
• Lock and turn off your handheld so that a password must be entered before you can use the device again.
• Hide records that you have defined as private, with or without a password. Without a password, private records are hidden
until you set the Security application to display them; with a password, you must enter the password to view the private
entries.
