Holy smokes, this is much more annoying than I thought possible! Using either the | and < methods of passing in the passphrase works from the CMD window and I can decrypt the file fine. Even cutting and pasting the command string in works fine.
But when I shell the exact same line of text (which is where I cut it from) into the VBA Shell command, which I do for literally dozens of tasks, it does not work. GPG puts up the message: Reading passphrase from file descriptor 0 ... And then just sits there. Perhaps I can't call a pipe or redirect in the VBA shell command; if try I'm pretty much sunk unless I can get --passphrase-file to work. And it doesn't. Is --passphrase-file a feature of 2.0 only? If so, is there somewhere where I can get a compiled windows binary of it?
