| This doesn't have much to do with SQL Server 2000 however I have gotten good advice here before.My boss wants me to set up some sort of security where as The recipents of an email cannot forward the attachment in the email, or copy it, or edit it. They can view it and print it.I believe I can utilize Information Rights Management from Microsoft in conjuction with Office 2003, Windows Server 2003, SQL Server, RMS Software. HOWEVER I can only protect Word, Excel, and PowerPoint Docs. I was told that PDF cannot be protected with IRM.Also I can utilize the Adobe version however I cannot protect PowerPoint. Which is no big deal.Is anyone familiar with either one these or with any other program and be willing to offer some input on what to watch for, what to avoid, and etc.Card Gunner |

| I doubt it there is anything you can do to prevent someone with any determination from copying the content and doing as they please.For example, if they can print, they could print using a PDF printer driver and do whatever they want with the output file.If you don't want them to do that stuff with your content, don't send it to them.CODO ERGO SUM |

If there is a will there is a way...Very true.My project is too make it as hard as possible. Most of our employees would not know how to do that even if the print to pdf was available to them.Becasue I can't email the material I have to print it out, make 5 or more copies, hand them out, take the old ones back, and shred the old ones.This is done at least 5 times a month That gets old quick. What software is the best?Card Gunner |
