Help using Windows Crypto API

[rlawrence]

Hi again,

I'm having trouble using the Crypto foundation class. I'm using the _crypto class in a COM component that does the encryption and decryption I need. Everything seems to work fine in VFP. But when I call the component from an ASP page, the process fails because the IsInstalled() method of the class indicates that Crypto is not installed. Both tests are run on my development machine. Any thoughts why this wouldn't work through ASP?

Thanks,

Ron

I think you will have to subclass the _crypto class and add that subclass to your COM server in order to run it outside VFP.

Dave,

Thanks for the response. However, I don't use the _crypto class (Actually I think it's CryptAPI) directly through COM. I have a method on a component that makes use of it to authorize a user. So, it is never called directly from outside the component.
