Hi folks,
Is there a way to convert .bch files to .pen files, in order to protect my code when sending applications to other people?

Re: .bch to .pen
Hello,
the Batch Edit Application File is a JSON specification file reserved for batch edit applications. The Binary Data Entry Application File is a binary file reserved for data entry. You cannot convert between batch and data entry file types since they do different things. Batch edits are completed on Windows rather than on mobile, so they do not have a format for mobile use like pen files. You can see the CSPro file types here. You might protect a .bch file by putting it in a password protected .zip file or other method, so long as it is still accessible by CSPro and continues to function with the correct access.
Hope this helps,
Justin
