TClientDataset(CDS) File Protect

Dave Bhatia

Cds Encrypt Class

This Class allows you to save a TClientDataset briefcase file password protected so the data can be secure.

If you have sensitive data on a single tier or an n-tier application's local drive that utilizes TClientDataset, chances are the data is not very secure, anyone with some knowledge of Delphi can open the CDS file and look at the data.

This class has two methods that allow you to save the data with a password embedded in the CDS file so only your application can open and write to the CDS file.

Load( filename, TClientDataSet )

Save( filename, TClientDataSet )

The Zip file contains all the source code, a demo project, a cds file and the demo Exe file.
