triple DES usage

Hi there.

I have been trying to search for this, how do you use triple DES in C#? I have read the doc - but cant find much about it!

any ideas? or does anyone have a better way to encrypt and decrpyt a password?

Thanks!

Why would you want to encrypt a password? You'd need ANOTHER password to decrypt the first password - net result, no benefit. You can, however, hash the password, there is a large section in MSDN about cryptography.

:) thanks

how would you go about using it if you hardcode the key in the application?
