Hi

I am using the crypto control from VFP's foundation classes but it is becoming a real pain as the decryption fails on some machines. The last instance happened on a Win2000 laptop. I made sure that I specified that the encryption should be based on MS Base Cryptographic Provider so that it did not accidently use the new enhanced version. However it still fails occasionally on some machines.

Does anyone know why this occurs and anyway to guarantee that the Windows encryption will work correctly in Win98/ME/2000/XP? What files and versions are required in Windows to make this 100% reliable?

I am beginning to think it would be easier to use a crypto.fll to eliminate these problems.

Thanks
