Database Password


General Topics > Database Password

The database password is used to protect the data file from being opened by unauthorized individuals. Because TrackPro uses the Microsoft Jet Database Engine Version 3.6 data format, the database file could be manipulated by any application that is capable of reading this file format. The database password protects the file from this possibility.

Tip:  Do not confuse the database password with the user password. They are two different things.       

Should you ever require direct access to the data file, I will remove the password protection from a copy of the file. There may be a charge for this service. Additionally, if the file becomes unusable there will be a fee for data recovery.
