Hallo,
I need to create an InfoPath form that will encrypt itself on the save or
submit event, so that it can't be read in a text editor by unauthorised
persons.
The encrypted file should be protected with a password that must be entered
when someone wants to open the form.
I think C# with JScript is a good idea here, but the customer wants all the
code in the XSN file. Is it possible ? Doesn't .NET code create a DLL which
has
to be deployed together with the XSN file ?
I'd be grateful for help,
best regards,
Greg.

Hi Greg,

You could use C# behind the form to generate an encrypted file (from your
DOM). The dll generated when using the .Net toolkit for InfoPath would be
embedded inside your xsn (no extra dll to deploy). The only requirement for
your users is to have the .Net framework installed.
