I am entering information into a database and on my INSERT command, I  
am encrypting it using a generated key and the encrypt() function.   
Now I wish to search on the information.  I usually do an UPPER on  
both the search criteria the data in the field to assure that caps do  
not matter.  IOW,  'Meeting' will also find 'meeting'.  Now that the  
information is encrypted, I'm having trouble figuring out how to  
search for it and where to encrypt during the search

Need to adjust:
AND UPPER(meeting_name) LIKE <cfqueryparam value="%#UCase 
(Form.meeting_name)#%" cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar">

This finds nothing when it should find something, assuming it were  
correct:
AND UPPER(meeting_name) LIKE <cfqueryparam value="%#encrypt(UCase 
(Form.meeting_name),the_key)#%" cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar">

if the db data is not encrypted an neither is the query then the  
above code finds lots of entries.

thank you.
