Working with private entries

In most applications you can mark individual entries as private. All private entries remain visible and accessible until you select the Security setting. You have two Security setting options:

•Hide Records: Private entries do not appear anywhere in the application.

•Mask Records: Private entries are replaced with a visual placeholder where the entry would normally appear.

After you enable the mask or hide setting, any entries marked as private are immediately hidden or masked. 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.
