By having the literal 'SomeSecurePassword' compiled into your app, it can be easily found (even though it would not be readily apparent what that string is for). So what I is concatenate the owner id at run-time. e.g. ABC STRING('ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890') !123456789012345678901234567890123456 ! 1 2 3 Code MyID = ABC[1] & lower(ABC[20]) & ABC[29]!etc, etc,
