June 4, 200718 yr I have a completed app. I use "Exeshield" to protect my runtime. It works flawlessly. However the actual database is a .usr (rather than .fp7) and when one opens up the .usr file in Filemaker Pro, there is a program they can use to access my code and scripts. It extracts the login and password. The program is called "Filemaker Password Recovery" and I need to make my app so no one can access this. I guess I need a way to make it so when I edit the file my password and login will be secure. any advice??

June 5, 200718 yr Author By removing full access, I am then left with no ability to modify the .usr for updates. I have not found a way to update the .usr without losing their data, so I am left with manual updating of the .usr and thus eliminating full access would eliminate the ability to update it...Am I right?
June 5, 200718 yr Pretty much, but then again that tells you something about the architectural structure of your solution. Look into The Separation Model™ construct as a way to manage your update process. Steven
June 5, 200718 yr How on earth did the "creator" manage to get a TM on such a common term as The Separation Model™ ??
