hog Posted July 12, 2003 Posted July 12, 2003 I'm writing a home accounts application as just for the hell of it. The data will be in an Access2002 database. I use a laptop and so want to encryt certain fields such as account no, payment amounts etc. Would using hashtables to write to the database an encryted version of the data a good way to do it or is there a more efficient way?

Administrators PlausiblyDamp Posted July 12, 2003 Administrators Posted July 12, 2003 Hashtables don't store the data in an encrypted form, the original data is still there. They are more of a performance thing when searching. Best place to look is System.Security.Cryptography and it's related classes. A good one to look at would be System.Security.Cryptography.RSACryptoServiceProvider http://ms-help://MS.VSCC.2003/MS.MSDNQTR.2003FEB.1033/cpref/html/frlrfsystemsecuritycryptographyrsacryptoserviceproviderclassencrypttopic.htm has a little example of how to use it Quote Posting Guidelines FAQ Post Formatting Intellectuals solve problems; geniuses prevent them. -- Albert Einstein
