I need to password protect Base files that contain names and addresses to comply with Data Protection rules.
Is password protection of Base files planned to be implemented.
Hello,
Sounds as if you really want to protect the data and not actually the Base files themselves (different entities). If this is true the this is a function of the database and requires users to be established. All this may depend upon the actual database being used. You provide little information.
Hi
You are correct, it is the data that needs protection. I am the only user. I will investigate establishing myself as a user.
The database is a ‘Base’ database, a simple name and address table used for mailing.
Base is not a database. It is a front end to a database. You may be using either HSQLDB embedded (manual → HSQLDB v1.8) or Firebird embedded (manual → Firebird 2.5 Language Reference (English)). Reference appropriate manual for syntax to add users. If using a different database you need to reference the document for that database.
Hello,
there is a long running enhancement request #tdf70638 - but seems to be no progress. May be you could express your demand for such feature within the request.
Hope that answers your question.
