I developed an app. using vb 6.0 as front end and visual foxpro 6.0 as backend. I want to protect my database. It is possible to set password for my dbf files(having nearly 10 .dbf file ie.tables).
DBF is a very simply format. If FoxPro or dBase (or whatever you are using) does not provide a way to encrypt the .dbf files, then everyone can read it with a suitable program. You could encrypt the files yourself with something like PGP or so...
p.s: This is a DB2 group.
