Thanks Troy and Valentin for your suggestions. In the meantime I have discovered the DataSafe Xtra and am considering it to encrypt all config files (there is the one settng my custom parameters, and then some database files and grtaphics) with an agreed key only known to me and my clients.
This should allow the media viewer to descrypt the files correctly as the key will be built into it, as well as alllowing my client to keep encrypting the files correctly for each time they customise the media viewer. Has any of you experience with this Xtra? I don't need a weapons licence or something silly like that to use it for this applicaiton? ;-) Now the '+ One question': How would you implement a splash csreen that you want to pop up as the application launches? I faintly remember thast there was a way of doing that .. I'll look into the archives.. Have a nice sunday all (raining here in UK, good coding whether....)
