Ho to encrypting a rtf file ?

The answer to both is yes. If you are using VFP 7.0, there is a foundation class to access the Windows Crypto API routines. For some sample code see ...\Samples\Solution\FFC\Crypto.scx.
Before 7.0, there are a number of freeware, shareware and professional 3rd party add-ins that can provide encryption.
The easiest way to add an EOF character to the beginning of a file (assuming it's less than 16MB and you have enough memory available) is to use the FileToStr() and StrToFile() functions.
=strtofile(chr(0x1A)+filetostr("myfile.rtf"
,"myfile.rtf"
Put SET SAFETY OFF and SET SAFETY ON around this if you don't want to answer the OK to overwrite dialog.
