Hi,

I'm a bit confused: Today, I have a EXE that execute CRYPT_ENCODE/DECODE. This EXE just do it... It is not the same that have the CRYPT_REGISTER and, in fact, access tables and so on...

You still don't state whether you want the client to have knowledge of the encryption key but from your message I am assuming that you do.

I was only suggesting the use of a CRYPT_ENCODE/DECODE routine within your application to allow the client to set their own encryption key. Users ould then be required to logon using this encryption key as a password. Admittedly trapping for 'Not a table' is not a foolproof way of checking that the entered key is correct but if it does occur then checking for the same error on a couple of other tables should be a good enough indicator then the problem IS an invalid encryption key.

BTW if all of the files that you need to register are in the same folder (as implied by your use of ADIR()) then why not just use a wildcard spec for the CRYTPT_REGISTER() instead.
