It sounds like the .Sil file you are using may have been altered/corrupted to the point it is not compiling it correctly. I would try to re-create a new test .Sil file. Test by using the default English.Sil file and search for “Choose Save File” and replace it with your language then re-compile...

Start with the German - Deutsch .Sil file in the XLSPadlock home directory. The only one I believe you cannot modify is the “Original Workbook” menu option. I have been asking XLS tech support how to do it for over one year now with no reply.

When can we expect a new version of Padlock to be released?

Never had this issue with any prior XLS Padlock Setup versions? "Windows protected your PC Microsoft Defender SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting. Running this app might put your PC at risk." Please advise. Thanks

Try this and let me know what results you get. When compiling your excel file, is your xls(m) file linked to other workbooks or data sources? If using a install/setup program (like Paquet Builder) to bundle your compiled (.exe) excel workbook, are you adding any companion files, .dll’s, etc...

For clarification, you referred to “my XLS” file. I assume you mean your protected (.exe) file? Also, I assume you intend to distribute the compiled .EXE protected XLS file via a download from a web site? In most cases email providers disallow distributing/attaching .exe files via email. If you...

[G.D.G. Software Forum] [XLS Padlock] XLS Padlock Compiler version 2019.1 versus 2020.1

Any status change or updates? Thanks

Have discovered several inconsistencies with these compiler versions. I have submitted two requests to [email protected] and have received the standard “We have received your query and we will respond to you shortly.” I have sent in a very small Excel test file for support to test the...

If you are referring to “*open a previous saved secure workbook from a secure workbook (.EXE)”, refer to page 83, sec 11.5 in the User Guide. This feature is available only through XLS Padlock 2020.1. Good Luck

No doubt it is expensive. If you want to distribute your exe file via web/ftp downloads you are going to need either a Code Signing Certificate or an (Extra) (Validation) EV Code Signing Certificate. What I had to do was: Purchase a Code Signing Certificate to use when building my Setup.exe...

Code signing Certificates do not alleviate the problem with AV’s and Firewalls from dis-allowing .exe files from being downloaded. One of the most popular (and affordable) sites to purchase a code signing certificate is from Godaddy.com.To some extent EV Code signing certificates may allow your...

No. We had no request for it. And since the newer XLSPadlock supported both the 32 and 64 bit version we assumed that if there were no problems with anything that would be the case for the 64 bit version. So are you saying that our vba modules in the 32 bit version possibly will not work in the...

We changed the compiler options to build both 32 and 64 bit version (in one exe) for one of our users who is using excel 2016 x64 and they received this error when trying to open the compiled version. What do you mean by “…you are using modules in your project”? Yes we always “Lock VBA project”...

Compile error in hidden module: , Office Shared [vblr6.chm1040201] How to fix?

What is the nag message sil file named? Can graphics be added to the nag screen, if so how/where? If I send an activation key with an expiration date of 30 days when does day 1 start?

I want to post a 30 day trial version of one of our locked Workbooks on our server for users to download. I want to keep this trial version on our site without having to re-compile it every time I want to extend the expiration date. Is there any simple method or code to embed in the locked...

Frederick, Let give you some insight. We have been developing Excel Apps’ since its inception on the Macintosh. Yes the Mac. Excel for Mac was the first GUI version of Excel and it wasn’t until 1995 that MS released a very stable version of Excel (Excel 4.0) to run on the evolving Windows 95...

Frederick, For clarification, I (FTSC-PB) do not work or an a employee of GDG Software (XLS Padlock). I, like you, have purchased XLS Padlock, and am a user of the software.As I re-read through this discussion I still don’t see your entire API code and notice that you are using a slightly...

Frederick, At this juncture I’d be starting the process of elimination but first a couple of questions: What version and build number of Windows are you running? What version and build number of Excel are you running? What version of XLS Padlock are you running? Is this an app that you are...
