The best way to handle those encryption and decryption is in front end !Even you want to do in Mssql server, the simplest way is casting as varbinary.insert into <table_name> (password_column) values (cast('passsword' as varbinary(50)))Select cast (password_column as varchar(50)) from <table_name>Senthil.C------------------------------------------------------[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Operation canceledhttp://senthilnagore.blogspot.com/ |

Why would you want to decrypt something that is encrypted? If it was easy, wouldn't that defeat the object of having it encrypted in the first place? |
