My university is on version 7703. Is there a way to password protect a document in Report Caster?

I can't remember if this is available on 7.x but the 8.105 manual says the following:

You can include a password in a Distribution File. If you include a password in a Distribution File, the distribution output is encrypted in a password protected Zip file if the Zip option is selected. This option is only available if the ReportCaster Server Configuration option, Zip Encryption Password Plug-in, is set to None. When the ReportCaster Server Configuration option, Zip Encryption Password Plug-in, is set to Default or to a custom value, passwords in a Distribution File are ignored because the plug-in provides passwords.

Hello Angela and welcome to the Focal Point Forums!

You may want to take a look at the ReportCaster Administration manual. Chapter 3 starting on page 36 goes into detail about ReportCaster security and should be a big help in making sure your documents are secure.

Please let me know if you have any more questions or need further assistance.

Thanks,
