I am sorry. I meant another thing and wrote something else.
If I issue: INSERT INTO table1 values ('username',MD5('password'))
I will have the password stored in the database with MD5.
What I actually need is a manual way to get the password back, that is
decoding it.
By using a software this is easy but what I want to know is by using a
simple query operation.
Is there any functions that I can use inside a SELECT statement that
would show the password decoded?
MD5 is not reversible.
But you could do something like
SELECT password=MD5(?)
to see if the password they supplied matches the one that was previously
stored.
