Foxpro table security

I am a FoxPro user. My database(*.DBC) and tables(*.DBF) can easily be open anytime by any people in the office. I want to put some security in such a way that nobody can touch it except me, by providing username and password. But I don't know how.

In ordinary Foxpro window you can open a database / table in the command window (as long as you know some Foxpro commands), by using commands such as USE <table> or OPEN <database>, presto! you got it, the tables are wide open.

I like files in MSWORD, EXCEL and ACCESS becasue you can attach username & password to your data file. So nobody can touch the files. I want myFoxpro tables/database just like that.

Can anybody help me... pls write j_galla2002@yahoo.com or j_galla@hotmail.com

Thank you.
