Security

Your handheld comes with a Security application so that
unauthorized users cannot view the entries you wish to protect.
In Security, you can do the following:
Lock and turn off your handheld so that it does not operate until
you enter the correct password.
Mask all records that you mark as private so the information
appears greyed out.
Hide all records that you mark as private so they do not appear on
any screen.
You can mask and hide private records with or without a password.
Without a password, private records are hidden or masked until you
set the Security application to show them. With a password, you must
enter the password to view the private entries. See "Making records
private" in Chapter 5 for information on making records private.

Assigning a password

You can assign a password to protect your private records and to lock
your handheld.
To assign a password:
1. Tap the Applications icon
2. Tap the Security icon.
3. Tap the Password box.
4. Enter a password.
5. Enter a hint to help you remember your password if you forget
it. This is optional.
