Hi

I am trying to write a script that needs to be run-only (it contains a
password I do not want everyone to see) , and should ideally be saved as an
application. I am running OSX 10.2.6. The problem is that even the simplest
scripts saved in this way comes up with error -1344. Has anyone else
experienced this?

I haven't experienced the problem with run-only scripts, but...

I have a one-line script that, in a matter of seconds, can extract the plain text stored in a run-only script. If you plan to rely on run-only scripts to protect the password, I recommend that you get very creative (multiple calculations, algorithms, etc.)
