ArchiOffice Discussion > Archioffice Document Encryptioin

Recently, I have had a need to restrict user access to specific documents/folders within a project. I would like to see a function which allows an administrator to restrict/hide files on a workgroup or user basis. Even better would be an encryption function with something like Blowfish or AES in order to nullify attempts to access the shared database files via file explorer. Perhaps the encryption is unlocked upon user log-in, for transparency. I am not sure about the tech hurdles with the Archioffice programming, but it would be a useful feature.

Thanks.

Shane,

We expect to have this feature available in v9. However, in the future, the best way to communicate feature requests is to use the Help pulldown menu in ArchiOffice and select "post a feature request." This goes into our database of user ideas which we try and include in our updates and upgrades.

Thanks,

Steve
