+2 for Truecrypt... Still works Fine and if you are worried about the "reasons"
it was abandoned in terms of support then don't worry. Anyone who tries to
crack the cryptology must be REALLY desperate to get at your data.
Of course you could always use encrypted zip files.

Bitlocker allows you to set up an automatic decrypt on whatever machine(s) you
want but the default value is to ask for the decrypt key. For instance, I have

Do you know if a removable drive encrypted with BitLocker on Win 7
can be accessed on Win 10 and vice-versa?
Thanks.

Yes it can no problem. You set the machine you connect it to log onto the drive
and auto decrypt it. It is an option when you click the bitlocker menu item on
Windows Explorer (right click on USB Drive).

Thanks very much. I do recall reading some time back that people were
having problems when trying to access files encrypted under one
Windows OS from a different Windows OS. I do not recall whether that
specifically related to Bitlocker or to some Windows encryption API
or something else.

As far as I know it is compatible with Win 7 64 and 32 bit and also Win 10. It
will NOT work with Windows 7 Home edition though and your BIOS must support TPM

present (It usually is by default).

The Kingston Data Traveler series drives have hardware crypto, but
they're unlocked using a small program stored on separate cleartext

Another option, as opposed to doing nothing is to hide the files you want to
protect. If someone can't see them in a regular DIR etc then they probably
won't have the skipps to unhide them.
Right click on folder, select properties then hidden.

My point is, the Stonefield Database Toolkit does this for a few hundred US
dollars. Writing your own reindexing utility
for each application you support costs money and time and is likely going to
add up to more than you pay for SDT, which
many already own.
Your solution is simple, but it requi
Hi Fernando,
I rarely have to merge as we normally have one-developer one-project scenario
at WLC. Always a pain in the neck to deal with on the rare occasions it pops up.
That said, the newest version of VFP2Text does support "two-way" if you save
the files after you merge in Beyond Compare. J
