/DBDECRYPT

/DBDECRYPT, KeyA, KeyB, DataType, NUM1, NUM2, INC
Controls decryption of material data in the database file.

Valid Products: Pro | Premium | Enterprise | PrepPost | Solver | AS add-on

KeyA

Decryption key A (32-character maximum). This key is used to decrypt the data in a one-level encryption or to control access to the data in a two-level encryption. Leave this field blank if you do not have key A.

KeyB

Decryption key B (32-character maximum). This key is used to decrypt the data in a two-level encryption. Leave this field blank if the database file is encrypted with one-level encryption.

DataType

Type of data to decrypt. Must be set to MAT for material data.

NUM1, NUM2, INC

Decrypt materials from material number NUM1 to NUM2 (defaults to NUM1) in steps of INC (defaults to 1). If NUM1 = ALL (default), NUM2 and INC are ignored.

Notes

This command decrypts data in the database file. It must be issued before resuming the database file (RESUME command). Only KeyA is required for a one-level encryption. For a two-level encryption, inputting KeyB gives you partial access to the data. Inputting both KeyA and KeyB gives you full access.

For more information about using /DBDECRYPT in the encryption/decryption procedure, see Encrypting Material Data in the Ansys Parametric Design Language Guide. See also the /DBENCRYPT command.

This command is valid in any processor.
