How do I do this? I've finally got something I'd like to release, but I don't know how to place a password on the quest. I know its not like anyone is going to steal my quest data, nothings really original except the title screen, but I'd still like to password it.
Can someone explain to me how? I can't seem to figure it out on my own...

Tutorials are great things.
from page 1 of Alphadawgs tutorial.


Step 2: The Quest Header
Click Quest -> Header to bring up the Quest Header dialog.

Note the "Password" option. Here, you can type a code that will have to be entered each time the file is to be opened. I do not recommend entering a password until you are ready to make a quest ready for download. So we'll skip this step for now.
Quest Number: Leave this at "0." The "0" indicates a custom quest, which is what we are designing.
Quest Ver.: Short for "quest version" (what else), use this as an indicator as to how far you are along in a quest's development. Since we are just starting, 1.0 is a good number to place here.
Min Ver.: Short for "minimum quest version." For now, make this 1.0, to match your current quest version. Later on in the development of your quest, you might make significant changes to earlier parts of your quest. If you do, make this your current quest version at that time. Any games started with an earlier version of your quest will have to be restarted.
Title and Author: In Zelda Classic, when you clck Misc -> Quest Info this is the information you will see. Type whatever you would like to appear here.
When you are finished, click "OK" to save your changes.
Now, click File -> Save (or press F2) to save your file. Make sure you save after making any changes to your quest that you'd like to keep. I'll just leave it at this: shtick happens...
