There is a VERY easy way to do this.  Simply purchase Stufit Delux.  It 
has a feature that will stuff and password protect any file you wish. 
 Anytime you want to open that file, click on it, it prompts you for a 
password and poof, it's there for your eyes only.  I use it every day at 
my place of work.
