Encryption

[hyousuf2]

first of all how do i read n write simple text files in vb n secondly how do i encrypt/decrypt data in those text files

First of all, here is a link to CAPICOM, which is M$'s security .dll that will encrypt and decrypt information for you using a variety of methods.

And PINO did a pretty good job explaining the basics of files. There are a couple of ways to do it, but once you learn one way, the others are easier to grasp.

Hope these help you!


I'll also include a .vbs sample once you get Capicom. It's too big to upload it here. After you install and register it, you can open this in IE.
