Hey, Hilmar. Nice to hear from you again, dude.
>Some programmers use GUID - that might be an option. It is somewhat longer, though (16 bytes).
GUID? Not familiar with that -- yet! :^). Will give it a look and see
what gives. Currently, we're hacking some Intranet PHP web apps, but
it looks like we'll be shifting back to full-time VFP soon. One of our
sales reps went and did something wonderful and sold two VFP apps we
wrote, so it looks like Sameer and I will be lurking here more often,
asking dumb newb questions and all :^).

asked me if I needed salt, and I said, "I'm not into encryption." :^)
