Got it.

Thanks for the follow-up Klaus.

I used the Safari browser to open the PDF files directly and noted that there were
no empty spaces in the filepath used by Safari. Instead there was a "%20" where
a space would normally be in the filepath.

So I added this line of script and it works -

replace space with "%20" in tFile

So /Users ...

Not sure why the script below does not display the selected PDF File
from my Mac HD. I checked the filepath in the variable tFile and it looks correct.
If I feed tFile a web address instead, then the web page displays without issue
in the rev browser. Thanks - Jorge

Thanks for the great tip. Changed the code to following -

on DataStore
put base64Encode(fld "datashow1") into DataHold
put compress(DataHold) into fld "DCode"
put empty into fld "datashow1"
end DataStore

On ReclaimData
put fld "DCode" into hold
put decompress(hold) into DataHold
put base64decode ...

I just found the baseencode64(myData) and the basedecode64(my data) in the
livecode dictionary. I think it will work. At least the data in the fld will be

response. - Jorge

Thanks for the reply. There is data in a hidden table field which
populates a data table when the correct log in password is entered.
It is the data in the hidden field that I would like to protect.

So if I understand this correctly - In a standalone app that is password
protected the data that is ...

I have read a number of posts regarding "encrypting" livecode stacks.
I have run across conflicting information.

Entering a password protects the scripts but not the field contents when you are working
with a stack in the development environment.

When you create a standalone app and select encrypt ...

Never mind. I found the revDataGridLibrary in the IDE and added it manually as a substack.
The datagrid tables are working in my standalone APP. These types of resources were easier to locate
in the prior versions of Runtime Rev.

I have a livecode::Valentina DB combination that contains datagrids in the main stack and associated substacks.
I need to include the revDataGridLibrary in the standalone application for the standalone
to function correctly. In the standalone application settings I have chosen the "select ...

Thanks Klaus!

I imported a generic image to use as the test image.

I can change it to whatever image I wish to display by writing the binary text of the image that I retrieved from the DB to it.

set the text of img "TestImage" to ImageHold1
show image "TestImage"

Thanks for the reply.

I am storing jpeg images to a BLOB table in a Valentina DB with a LiveCode Front and the SQL Yoga Library

I can easily retrieve the binary data from the DB BLOB field "GYN_TF" and store it in a variable.
