Hi Glenn,

I've been working on an FLL that you might find useful in your endeavours. It's freely available on my blog and includes AES and Blowfish encryption functions, as well as the following hash functions: SHA1, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512, MD5, RIPEMD128, and RIPEMD160. Here's the permalink to the blog entry detailing the AES functions, there is a download link for the FLL in that entry as well:

I'll be adding more to this as I go along, it's a pretty good start for now. I will be working in more features that will allow Visual FoxPro developers to use seemlessly in a variety of ways... in other words, more good stuff to come. Hopefully the simple aesencrypt and aesdecrypt functions will suit your needs, if you have data that is non-string... then you will need to convert it using Transform(), Filetostr(), or Strtofile() - or something similar.
