Why can you not encrypt the formatted, word-process= ed file directly? Isn't this what the receiver would prefer? -- Eryndlia Ma= vourneen (KK1T) I cannot copy files directly into the main Ada folder (Just tried it again)= - it seems to be a procedural routine that must be followed i.e. you go int= o the folder only via the adaGIDE editor only - this is what I am not sure = about - I think I can send files to it?. Also, a person intimated a long time ago (foreget the details) that it is p= ossible to call a file of plaintext for encryption from any part of the com= puter but you must stake out the full formal path - I have no experience of= doing that and thought perhaps readers might. Thanks - Austin.
