I m a beginner. Using open source, I have compiled a freeware Eng-Hindi dictionary in C# with a 40K word data input source as a Text file. Is there someway to modify / hide the said Text file from front end user. Thanks.
Thankyou, I m a beginner. My native translation work(55K+ words) for dictionary is aimed for native user translation convenience. But text data reuse by native developers may cause multiple ditto copies so original translator not distinguished. I have tried encrypted file but goes unreadable by program. By whatever suitable means, how to make text file unutilizable by distrubution content recipient. Thanks & Regards.

1. If you want to hide the file visually then modify the file's properties to 'hide' the file its self.
2. If you don't want the user to access that file and make use of the data stored within it then do what was previously mentioned, Encrypt the file and when the program needs to use/load the file you would then Decrypt the file and then feed that data to the program. And to take an extra precaution that will keep most(not all) users from seeing the file. Follow step #1
