Hey!
Is it possible to lock my developed macros or workflow files?
So that an other person is not allowed to change my files!
Encryption basically means you can't see or edit the contents of the workflow. So encrypting a workflow doesn't really have any use.
Encypting a macro is useful if you want to share the macro but not allow people to see the underlying code, e.g. if you are reselling and want to keep your IP.
It sounds like you want to share a macro/workflow but allow people to view but not edit it. To do this the only possibility is to add it to a network share where they can view, but not overwrite the original. The downside is they can copy the workflow and edit it and save it elsewhere.
Assuming this isn't good enough then can you give more details of your use case? What purpose do you have for sharing a workflow people can't edit? It may be this would make a good product enhancement but I'm struggling to see why you'd need it.

Hey Mathias,
yes it is, try out the Encrypt option on the File menu (v9) or Options -> Advanced Settings (v10)

Hi Mathias,
Just keep a copy of an Un-Encripted for yourself !
Hey Chris,
o.k. i have found the encrypted option. But that is not what I need.
It should still be possible to work with workflow or marco. But the user should be not allowed to editing, change the workflow.
When I open an encripted alterxy file, you only get the modal dialog ".. the document can't be open for editing".
The user has never a chance to see an to work with the workflow.
Is there an other possibility?
Mathias
