Encrypting Scripts in Data Tables
You can also encrypt a script that is saved to a data table using the JSL Encrypted() or Include( Char to Blob() ) functions.
• JSL Encrypted() is more straightforward, because it involves one function. You can include comments inside the encrypted script.
• Include( Char to Blob() ) lets you include comments, but not inside the script.
Note: Column formulas in encrypted scripts are not encrypted. To encrypt them, include them in the JSL Encrypted() function.
Follow these steps to encrypt a data table script:
1. Place the script in a script window.
You cannot directly encrypt a script that is already saved to a data table.
2. In the script window, select Edit > Encrypt.
3. Enter a decrypt password.
4. (Optional) Enter a run password to require the user to enter a password before running the script.
5. If you entered only a decrypt password, click Yes to confirm that you do not want to assign a run password.
The encrypted script opens in a new script window.
6. Copy the entire encrypted script.
7. Create a new data table script or open an existing script.
8. In the script portion of the window, type one of the following functions:
JSL Encrypted( "" );
Include( Char to Blob( "" ) );
9. Paste the encrypted script inside the quotation marks in the function.
10. Click OK.
