Private records
In most applications you can mark individual entries as private. All private
entries remain visible and accessible until you select the Security setting to
hide or mask them. When you hide entries, they do not appear anywhere in
the application. When you mask entries, a visual placeholder appears where
the entry would normally appear. If you define a password, you must enter it
to display private entries. If you do not define a password, you (or anyone
else) can reveal private entries without a password.
1. Display the entry that you want to mark private.
2. Choose Details.
3. Check the Private box.
4. Choose OK.
