Keep important information with you
Keep important information with you, keep sensitive information secure!
One of the overriding principles of the Palmtop is to keep important information with you at all times. Having the right information with you will let you take advantage of spare time or unexpected opportunities. Unfortunately, having sensitive information with you all the time puts you at risk. If someone else gets ahold of your bank account or credit card numbers, it could cost you a lot of money. Keep important information with you, but be careful with it. Keep it protected hidden in places another person wouldn't expect to find it.
ON THE PALMTOP
Sensitive information can include bank account numbers, credit card numbers, safe combinations and cash machine access codes. Names and addresses of important contacts are sensitive. There are a couple of ways you can protect this information on the HP Palmtop.
1. Hide important information in unexpected places. You can put your credit card numbers and cash machine access codes in your PhoneBook in unexpected places:
Under a fictitious name, as the persons phone number.
In a text file in an obscure subdirectory, of a subdirectory, of another subdirectory.
In the Notes field of an obscure entry in your NoteTaker file or a World Time entry, etc.
A screen down in a Notes field. For example, press (F3) to go to the full-screen view of a Notes field, press (ENTER) 15-20 times and then enter important information. When someone presses (F3) to view a Note, all they'll see is a blank screen.
In a hard-to-find part of a Lotus 1-2-3 worksheet. Make it hard to find for anyone except you, who will hopefully remember where it is.
2. Password protect important information.
You can password protect individual files for built-in PIMs and Lotus 1-2-3 files on either the HP 100LX or 200LX, and Pocket Quicken files on the 200LX.
To set or change a password on an individual data file for one of the PIMs or Pocket Quicken, open the file in the application, press (Menu) File Password, and follow the instructions. To delete a password, press (Menu) File Password and leave the new password blank.
For more information, see passwords in the index of your HP 100/200LX Users Guide.
