hello all,

i was wondering if there was a way to encrypt me visual basic source code so when people view it in a hex editor ore anything they will not see as much of it as when i dont encrypt it. yet i dunno how to encrypt things in visual basic so if one of you would know and help me i would be very happy

thanks in advance,

Dreamcatcher

To encrypt your source code: http://www.aspack.com/asprotect.htm

It is commercial. Perhaps there is a free tool as well.

To encrypt string using VB:
search planetsource
There are many demos, some time ago I found an excellent one, describing several approaches.

Hope it helps.
