how can i make it so everything that i read from a text file is encrypted? so like everythin is encrypted but i can access the text like it wasnt encrypted. how do i do this?
 
You could associate the encrypted file type with your application. Your app would automatically decrypt the file, expose its contents for manipulation (editing, etc.) and then encrypt it again before it is saved back to disk.

Or you could create a shell extention that would automate the encryption/decryption process... but that would be pretty hard to accomplish using Visual Basic. Better to stick with the basics, eh?
