    Storing a Variable

    Is there any way to store a value within my software itself? Like an internal database of some sort?

    I have finally done my encryption for my keycode generation and now I'm stuck trying to find a way to keep this information from unhonest hands that would just love to find a crack for my software...

    Any Ideas? Does anyone know of a good tutorial on file encryption?

    Thanks,

    You maybe need to look at creating resource file and embed that in the assembly .

    Also look at obfusicating your code. Since you are using .Net, remember that people can dissassemble your application.

    Could either of you explain the use of a resource file or what obfusicating my code actually does?

    Thanx,
