Hi Mark,

Sorry, I didn't read your post carefully enough. Maybe Chilkat Crypt ActiveX (commercial) will work for you? It comes with VFP sample code http://www.example-code.com/foxpro/hmac_md5.asp and has 30 days trial.

>Thanks, Sergey! I'm getting there, using the fll and the utc conversion you mention, but I'm stuck now, in that I need to supply a seed key to the hash generation, and Craig Boyd's hash() function doesn't provide for a key seed to be passed to his hash function. Thanks again! -Mark
