Encryption?

[Rmckenna]

Is there anyway to have encryption at the shapesheet level?

I want to have information that is encrypted and deciphered by the shape
sheet.

Why:
I have a bill of material that show part prices. I want these hidden and
unavailable when the drawing is open by someone other than me (my vsl
solution).

I know I can translate the values on document.open and then cipher the
values on document.save, saveas, etc. But is there a better way? Should I
create a com add-in that does just that. So if you open my drawing where I
don't have control of it (i.g. competetor's office) then the document is
just garbage?

What are your thoughts?

Thanks for your suggestion.

There is no smooth way about it. I should rewrite I have done, and make all
stored information unusable. Only if my plugin is active and running, will
it render the information.
