<p>I have two functions that are supposed to encrypt and decrypt a string but the encrypt function returns a different encrypted string for the same text everytime. What have I done wrong?</p> <pre><code>Public Shared Function Encrypt(ByVal strText As String, ByVal strKey As String) As String Dim IV() As Byte = {&H12, &H34, &H56, &H78, &H90, &HAB, &HCD, &HEF} Try Dim bykey() As Byte = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(Left(strKey, 8)) Dim InputByteArray() As Byte = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(strText) Dim des As New DESCryptoServiceProvider Dim ms As New IO.MemoryStream Dim cs As New CryptoStream(ms, des.CreateEncryptor(bykey, IV), CryptoStreamMode.Write) cs.Write(InputByteArray, 0, InputByteArray.Length) cs.FlushFinalBlock() Return Convert.ToBase64String(ms.ToArray()) Catch ex As Exception Return ex.Message Finally End Try End Function Public Shared Function Decrypt(ByVal strText As String, ByVal strKey As String) As String Dim IV() As Byte = {&H12, &H34, &H56, &H78, &H90, &HAB, &HCD, &HEF} Dim inputByteArray(strText.Length) As Byte Try Dim byKey() As Byte = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(Left(strKey, 8)) Dim des As New DESCryptoServiceProvider inputByteArray = Convert.FromBase64String(strText) Dim ms As New IO.MemoryStream Dim cs As New CryptoStream(ms, des.CreateDecryptor(byKey, IV), CryptoStreamMode.Write) cs.Write(inputByteArray, 0, inputByteArray.Length) cs.FlushFinalBlock() Dim encoding As System.Text.Encoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8 Return encoding.GetString(ms.ToArray()) Catch ex As Exception Return ex.Message End Try End Function </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
