The MD5 hash algorithm is a one-way algorithm, so you can't really decode it.

To encode a string and compare its hash is a way of validating the data. This is commonly used for transmitting passwords without actually sending the password plain-text.

An activex control called Encoder Wizard makes it pretty easy to use MD5.

Hope this helps.
