Our app uses one login for the DB (not my idea) and the need to change the PW and store it encrypted in a file is a requirement. My first thought was to put it in the app.config file, which I think I've actually decided against now anyway because I'm thinking of keeping this file on the server, but during my test, I found that I couldn't store an encrypted value in the config file. The data raised a bad data error. Why is it that a textbox can handle the value but a config file can't (I noticed the display looked different from the textbox and the display in the config file)?
