RequiresEncryptionKey Not Working?

[Barry G. Sumpter]

Yes please on windows and later MAC.

I'm thinking you have to have an open database first.
The vDB = opendb(f)
Then decrypt it or encrypt it.
Leaving it assigned as a vDB.

Then ask it if vdb.RequiresEncrytionKey.

???

A workaround could be to open the vDB and trap from the "wrong key" error.

I remember 2 weeks ago was similar question.

We have checked Encryption examples, and they not use this function at all.

Please checkout examples. We have MANY on encryption.

Ivan, please check this function carefully once again.
