what do you expect to see when you encrypt a data?

Thanks for your advise.

I didn't mean I wanted to encrypt/decrypt Chinese character. The string is
alphanumeric but the encrypted string become 'alien' charater and no way to
decrypt back to orignal.

I also tried other encryption FLL but result was the same.

While I've not used the crypt class with chinese characters -- I stopped using
the crypt class becuase I get different results on different machines/os's

I'd use something specifically for encryption -- NetLib for industrial strength;
or the crypt fll from Sweetpotato software....

Hi there, I try to follow vfp 9 _crypto sample to encrypt/decrypt a string
under Vista pc (this pc also configure to read n write chinese charactor).

Problem is, the encrypted string generated from _crypt.vcx looks like gabage
character that couldnot be decrypted back to the original string.

Any idea?
TIA
