in reply to Re: encrypt excel documents in thread encrypt excel documents
There are some nice ideas in this post. However, the user of the Excel spread sheet does not necessarily have Perl on their PC and they won't want to be downloading encryption software to their PC. I think that the solution lies in using VB script. I will need to think about it a little bit more. Does anyone know of a bit of Perl code that encrypts and reads back the encrypted text. I could use that as a basis for producing the VB script and corresponding Perl script.

There are various ways to make a perl script a binary executable on a windoze PC (link to get you started). If you take advantage of one of those options, the person would not need to install perl, nor encryption software other than the one you provide.-Scott | [reply] |
