how to encrypt a string by coding??

please somebody show me the way... ^^

You can try to replace some characters by others and reverse the process to get back the actual string.

I don't think there is any one standard way of encrypting text. You should research the subject and determine what your requirements are. Here is a link to help get you started.

One way i have used...

Pick out each character in a string and return the asci code of the character. have some mathematical fun and then turn it back into a character...

basically some asci swapping.

Works well for personal use.

functions used are

mid()
asc()
chr()

Killer42 is correct when he says that there is no standard way to encrypt and that you should do some research to find out what would best fit your needs. However, I used to use the below functions (I don’t any more). They are only going to keep the honest people honest. With that said here you go…

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

  
     Function Decrypt(ByVal TextVal As String) As String

        Dim x As Integer

        For x = 1 To Len(TextVal)

            Mid$(TextVal, x, 1) = Chr(Asc(Mid(TextVal, x, 1)) - 100)

        Next

        Decrypt = TextVal

    End Function
 
    Function Encrypt(ByVal TextVal As String) As String

        Dim x As Integer

        For x = 1 To Len(TextVal)

            Mid$(TextVal, x, 1) = Chr(Asc(Mid(TextVal, x, 1)) + 100)

        Next

        Encrypt = TextVal

    End Function

I hope this helps

Even better encryption/decryptions. I use this class in my projects and it works great. Symmetric Key Encryption using Rijndael and C#
