[dba-Tech] Hash Algorithm

Hello,

I am looking a code snippet that would take in a string and convert it to a
fixed length encrypted string. As well as a code snippet that would take the
encrypted string and return the original string.
Preferably in VB or vbscript.

I am trying to create a session-less web application but there are times
where information needs to be passed from page to page, like someone's
username, that is sensitive and wouldn't want someone either reading or
sending it themselves. If I can encrypt this string, it would stop casual
users from sending this data themselves by creating a web page with a form
and posting it to the web server.

Thanks,
JR
