Please can anyone tell me what Classes/Package or windows Api calls is
best for encrypting files using FPC in a windows environment.

Thanks.

You can try with DCPcrypt, I don't know if this set has a direct file
encryption, but you can stream the file, encrpyt and then rewrite the
stream crypted...

See http://www.cityinthesky.co.uk/cryptography.html for details

Thanks nicolagorlandi, Am trying out the units,
when i tried building a solution based on the units, it gives me an
error of
\\DCPbase64.pas(81,9) Error: Identifier not found "Result"

Should i declare the Result Identifier? , i believe the Unit should be
complete without errors when compiled,

Please any help on this? Thanks.

I believe the unit should be compiled either in ObjFPC or Delphi mode.
