Locking the database

Database lock provides you a password protection for your database upon opening.

Setting the password

Before you can lock your database, you need to set a password for the lock. In order to do it, please follow these steps:

Database-Specific Preferences

Database-Specific Preferences

  1. Click on the “Preferences” icon in the toolbar.
  2. In the sidebar, click on the other preference item (with your database name as its caption) which is the section for database-specific options.
  3. In the password protection section, write your password twice in the two password boxes, and hit “enter” when you’re done.

Make sure you entered exactly the same password in the two input boxes.

Locking the database

To lock the database, simply click the “Lock” icon in the toolbar.

Canceling the password protection

If you wish to clear the password protection of your database, follow the first two steps above, and empty the two password boxes in the password protection section, then hit “enter” to confirm.

You’ll then see a textbox indicating the password protection has been cancelled.
