Customized Load/Save of templates

rbuser

Hi!

I haven't checked this out but is it possible to override the template's
Load and Save routines to read them e.g. from an encrypted file? Maybe you
install a filter routine or so which loads the data in memory and there it
is processed by the Load/Save method ... if that's possible I'd be able to
encrypt the files, so nobody except me is able to open them again. The
reason for this is that nobody should be able to change the files without
our report designer - so if only the report designer knows the
encryption/decryption algorithm this would be a quite perfect solutions. I
think you get the point I mean...

The template rtm file can be saved as ASCII text, and you can certainly take
these charactres and encrypt them. You application can simply use the public
events of the Template object to perform the encryption/decryption of the
rtm. Search the RB help file index on 'Template.'

Ok, I'll do that.
