Hello:

All of the documents I've read on Access 2003 states we can encrypt data in
the database and I should look for the Tools/Security/Encrypt Data option.
However, I don't see that option, but I do see a Tools/Security/Encode/Decode
database. Is that one and the same or does it serve a different purpose?

Thanks
