Password protecting a directory

[Montrose]

My church wants to password protect some semi-secure folders that files like
parish address and phone numbers. Is the a simple inexpensive way to do this
? It doesn't need to be super secure. And only in programs like Lotuus or
Outlook.

Outlook can only password protect an entire logon or data store. If you
password protect your PST file the user would have to log in at Outlook
startup. There isn't a more granular method unless you get into digital
rights management software, which isn't cheap and needs administration.

Right-click in the Personal Folders item in the Folder List (Outlook Today)
and select Properties. Click Advanced and then Change Password to add a
password.

I tried that and nothing happened. Is it because I asked it to save the
password?
