I'll say it again

T'was a pleasure

Feel free to post back whenever you run into difficulty

Good luck and happy coding

To my warped sense of logic, the below says

If a file is opened using CommandLine parameter then run the _decrypt function but if the file does not have a .crypt extension run the _encrypt function.

If $CmdLine[0] > 0 Then _decrypt()
If $CmdLine[0] <> '.crypt' Then _encrypt()

Needless to say it doesn't work. No matter whether the file has .crypt extension or not it runs the _decrypt function.

If $CmdLine[0] > 0 Then
    If StringRight($CmdLine[1], 6) <> '.crypt' Then
        _encrypt()
    Else
        _decrypt()
    EndIf
EndIf

Thanks. So is that saying 'Count 6 places to the right of the file name, if these match .crypt then _encrypt else _decrypt'?

I'd say it was 'If file name ends with .crypt then encrypt else decrypt'. It's essentially a shortened version of this function I sometimes use:

Func StringEndsWith($sString, $sWith)
    Return StringRight($sString, StringLen($sWith)) = $sWith
EndFunc   ;==>StringEndsWith

In your example, _encrypt will always be run (you are using CmdLine[0]), and _decrypt will be run whenever a command line parameter is given. There would be times when both are run as well

That makes sense, thank you
