Ages ago I worked on a fox 2.6 system which encrypted passwords and stored them in a text field. Next time the user logged in the password was encrypted and and checked against the stored version.
I've looked through help and can't find the command to do the encryption. Can anyone help me?
What I plan to do is issue the people who buy my program a code based on their surname (last name) and both will be entered into the system. If the surname, when encrypted, doesn't match the code then reports and exports are disabled. The users surname is printed on all reports so if they pass the software around they'll have to have another person's name on all their stuff which will hopefully aggravate them into buying a legit copy.
Maybe someone else has a better idea? or method?
