RE: encrypting SQL Server data
That is a public key cryptosystem, he needs symmetric key. You can use one of the encryption functions on the http://www.cflib.org Plus functions there are free to use.

Granted they are more trouble to deal with when used properly (i.e. the decryption key is kept off the server and input -- pasted in -- at the start of each work session), but the sacrifice in convenience is made up for by the increased security. Provided of course the users know not to do things like email someone the private key. -- --- Matt Robertson, [EMAIL PROTECTED] MSB Designs, Inc. http://mysecretbase.com --- -- [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
