C Carey Frisch [MVP] Oct 25, 2004 #2 Windows XP does not have the capability to password-protect an individual file or folder. Instead, see the following: HOW TO: Set the My Documents Folder as "Private" in Windows XP http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;298399&Product=winxp You Cannot Select the "Make This Folder Private" Option http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;307286&Product=winxp How to set, view, change, or remove special permissions for files and folders in Windows XP http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;308419&Product=winxp -- Carey Frisch Microsoft MVP Windows XP - Shell/User Be Smart!
