Subject: Re: Macro encryption

When you encrypted the macro to a file, the first line on the file is a
/decrypt command. This
command must be there for the encrypted macro to run.
The encrypted macro hides the technology, but allows anyone to run the
macro. To
provide single user access to the macro, you must encrypt it with a key,
then provide the
key to the single user (after providing the macro with the first line
removed).
Hope this helps.
