  • RE: Encrypting SQL Code

    Here's a better solution. Have the developer send you the code in identifiable releases (4.1, 4.2, etc.). Have the pertinent block of code/query/etc. prefaced with something like --...

    Lowell (3/16/2009)


    in .NET, your Datasource has the ability to .WriteXML(pathToFile) and .ReadXML(pathToFile), so it's very easy to load tables into your dataset form say, SQL server, and then write them...
