Hi ezeemon,

either you write your own encryption vi to hide the password in the ini file or you may look for "blowfish" here in the forum...

Hi ezeemon,

an other way could be to generate a hash value of your password and write this into the ini file. The next time you will check the password you genereate the hash of the input and compare this with the hash from the ini file.

There is an OpenG vi 'MD5 Digest' that takes a string input and returns a hash value.
