Notes

Using Password Protected Fields in Reports

If you use a password protected field in a report, you will be prompted to enter the associated pass phrase in order to see the data in the report. If you do not enter the pass phrase or enter the pass phrase incorrectly, the report will still be displayed but the column containing the pass phrase protected data will be blank.

If you use more than one pass phrase protected field in a report, you will be prompted for each pass phrase in turn.
