Yes - create the exe - I set it to no debug and encrypted. Then run SP. The steps were spelled out by Boyd - I believe - in FoxPro Advisor. A new exe is generated and your original is renamed. I use a splash screen in the encrypted version so I can spot the difference. The process takes seconds, is smooth and transparent. There are a couple of "special" items for VFP but they are clear in their documentation.
There are dozens of options - it seems to have been developed for those who sell code via the web. I bought it maybe a year and a half ago and they have provided a half dozen or so updates since then - without charge. I cannot tell you how well it encrypts. I can tell you they act like pros and I am comfortable with their product. Check the archives here and FoxPro Advisor.

Do you just run the program after the VFP exe is created? $299 seems steep for this project, but maybe it would be a good investment for projects down the road. I googled "site:siliconrealms.com "visual foxpro"" and found some comments on their forum. Sounds like some had problems but were resolved.
