ediSecurities. ExportExchangeKeyPair

Exports the Public/Private key pair from Cryptographic Service Provider (CSP) key container to a file.

Syntax:

<lretval> = object. ExportExchangeKeyPair(<sExportFileName>,<sPassword>, [<sKeyContainer>], [<sServiceProvider>], [< lProviderType>])

Parameters:

• sExportFileName - Name of the file to export the key pair to.
• sPassword - Password.
• sKeyContainer - Name of the key container that contains the key pair to export.  If a blank or no name is specified then the default key container name is used.
• sServiceProvider - Optional.  Name of the Service Provider whose key container is to be exported.  If none is specified, the default CSP is used.
• lProviderType - Optional.  Service provider type.  For the list of possible provider types please see Cryptographic Service Provider Type Constants.

Returns

Returns 1 if the operation is successful; otherwise returns 0 if the operation fails.

Remarks:

The sServiceProvider and lProviderType specify the CSP that has the key container.  If sServiceProvider and/or lProviderType are not specified, the default CSP database is used, which is specified by DefaultProviderName andServiceProviderType.  The type of database, whether machine key set or user key set, is specified using ediDocument.Option by the constant OptDocument_MachineKeySet.

Example:

Set oSecurities = oEdiDoc.GetSecurities

' Creates a new key container for hypothetical trading partner.
oSecurities.DeleteKeyContainer sKeyContainerName
oSecurities.CreateKeyContainer sKeyContainerName

'Export private and public key container to a file
oSecurities.ExportExchangeKeyPair sExportFileName, sPassword, sKeyContainerName, sProviderName
