Hi.

When a password is encrypted using password(), do you know how many characters it is encrypted to? For example, if the password is 'hotshot', how many characters will this password take up in the database when it is encrypted? Does it double, triple, or is there no standard rule?

Thx.

Do you mean when you use Password() as an input mask? If so it does not do any kind of encryption it merely hides the text with asteriks(*).
