Why not encrypt/decrypt data in SQL Server directly instead ?Right now I use Rick Strahls Business Object class... this project already exists on a .dbf backend... so the goal is to use the exact same code for both a .dbf backend and sql server backend... thus continuing the use of the existing encryption/decryption routines. That way... when I'm read to throw the switch on moving from the .dbf's to the SQL Server nothing else changes.
