BACKGROUND: In version 6.1.7. Visual Cron started to encrypt the query string, prior to this the string was unencrypted. During conversion, the old uncrypted string when not empty was converted into a new task in the new encrypted string property.

CUSTOMER SPECIFIC NEEDS:
- Automation is Self Documenting (See attached xsl/html)
- Automation jobs can be run manually using documentation as needed
- SQL is searchable

PROBLEM STATEMENT: Now that SQL strings are encrypted, the XML file can no longer be used to generate documentation that can be used to run the processes manually when it contains a SQL specific task. In addition, the client Tools --> Object Search function no longer finds items in SQL strings.

SUGGESTED SOLUTION: Add the option for SQL Strings to be stored in encrypted or unencrypted formats. Security for this feature could be at at the global level (with or without 'Allow Task Level Control') AND/OR at the task level for fine grain control. We would choose global unencrypted. Others might choose encryption of specific SQL tasks.
