This program will encrypt any text file. Use it as a password vault or to encrypt other
sensitive material. Program features Microsoft cryptographic services - this is code
within the Windows operating system.

INSTRUCTIONS:
-Create a not empty text file on your computer that you don’t need – like a copy.
-Start the program and submit a password (THAT YOU WON'T FORGET) on the PASSWORD menu.
-Go to Help\About menu and agree to the terms of use. Click OK.
-Note that clicking the “X” button on any of the program’s forms will end the program.
-Click the SELECT FILE button and choose the text file you created.
-Click the VIEW FILE button and view the file, and then close.
-Click ENCODE.
-Click VIEW FILE to view the encoded file, and then close.
-At this point, your text file has been encoded and SAVED.
-Click DECODE. View the file, and then close.
-Click the "X" button (TOP RIGHT) to exit the program.

OPTIONS\SELECT FILE -  The default for INITIAL FOLDER is the last folder used. If you select the
ROOT FOLDER option, then the initial folder will always be " C:\ ". By doing this, the location of
your encrypted text file will be unknown to the user.

Note that you must decode a file with the same password used to encode it, and the program does not record
or save any passwords - if you lose your password, you lose your data.  Encoding a file wihout a password
is the same as using the null string - "" as a password. When this program encodes, the data is expanded and
the encoded file will be larger. Your password is an integral part of the encryption - your data can't be
decoded without it, and encoding the same file with two different passwords yields two distinct results.
Also, when a file is encoded, it's attribute is set to READ ONLY, and when decoded set to NORMAL. If you try
to encode a READ ONLY file you will encounter a warning before the file is encoded. You encounter a similar
warning if you try to decode a NORMAL file. If you try to decode a file with the wrong password, the program
changes the attribute but does nothing else. So you will get an attribute warning next time you decode. You
are advised to show your password when you submit it, since if you mistype your password, your data will be
lost.
