Re: Hide password in custom commands

Mike,

Search the help in SIM (big, blue question mark) and use the phrase "encrypted variables". You should get a link to the Custom Tools Reference. There is syntax that allows you to enclose your variable(s) at which point they should be encrypted:

%< ... %> Encrypted text (encrypt after all other parameters have been substituted).

I haven't had to use this, just remembered reading it. Hope this points you in the right direction.
