Hi,

File > Active Report Properties. Enter your password in the Access Code field.

Cheers!

Thank You MF,

Now am able to see apart from this is there any to protect .mht file.

bcoz here in Access code, giving only one name(Eg: xyz),If we have more users to consume this  same mht file..How to proceed with this scenario.

Thanks,
Sudheer

I don't follow. This is where you allocate a password for the rendered report. Unless a user knows the password, they can't open the mht file. You can't allocate more than one password to a report.
