No, I don't think you have a problem. The storage method is kept in the data 
file, so if you open a file that was encrypted it will be saved encrypted 
again. And that, if you decrypt it externally and open it as an XML file. If 
you want to permanently remove the encryption from it, you need to 'save as' 
and select a non-encrypting method.

Hope that helps.
