Locking the Organizer
The Organizer’s LOCK function allows you to keep selected
information in your Organizer secure by locking it with a
password that you specify. Entries that you have marked as
secret cannot be accessed until the Organizer is unlocked
using the password. Individual entries can be marked as
secret, so that only someone who knows the password can
access them by unlocking the Organizer. Note that this
password is completely different from the one used for the
ASK PASSWORD feature within the SET START-UP
DISPLAY options (see p.183). Marking entries as secret
has no effect until the Organizer is locked.

Enter any password up to seven characters long.
Letters, numbers, and symbols can all be used. This
text box is case-sensitive, which means that upper-
and lower-case letters are treated differently. The
password “SHARP”, for example, is different from the
passwords “Sharp” or “sharp”.
☞ Choose your password carefully. If you forget your
password, there is no way to bypass the Secret
function or enter a new password without losing all
data marked as Secret. It is strongly recommended
that you use a password that you will always be able
to remember, but which other people will be unable to
guess.

and keep it in a safe place.
