Hello Gurus,

I need to encrypt a notepad file containing some information. This notepad is the result of an ABAP program.

For encryption we need to run an executable file from MS DOS prompt.

I have to open command prompt and then choose the .EXE file and the notepad file. then press enter. Automatically the notepad content will be encrypted.

Currently this is done manually. I need to automate this process from ABAP program.

Can you give some ideas as to how this can be done in ABAP.

<< Please do not offer points >>

Thanks.

You can serach oin SCN for execute sap external command and you will find lot of details and the steps to be followed.
