      No there is not.... :laugh: There are two ways to solve your problem. The first is to encrypt the entire file, and decrypt the file when you want to read / edit it. Or you can encrypt the string of text which is contained by the file. Have you read this[^] article? It will help you encrypt the entire file. The article on this[^] page helps you encrypting and decrypting a string. Hope it helps!
