Drawing password

contact lost

Not something I need at present, if ever, but I came across the password option in 2004 DWG format in the manuals. I don't see any password option when saving here, even in the latest version which has 2004 DWG bug-fixes.Is this something to do with my settings, or do we not have this option vailable?

Mm... obviously it's not always a good idea to read the manual ;)Thanks

I got a request again from a client, asking if it is possible to password protect a DWG.

I have not come across any solutions until now and I think the answer is 'no' but I would like to hear views/responses to this.

by Vaidas, the _securityoptions command works! (just type _securityoptions at the Command prompt. not sure the level of security. can anyone advice on which Microsoft Crypt Provider is the best?

It's available from Popup menu too: File->Drawing Utilities->Security Options...
I'm sorry, not mentioned about that before.
