' This class encrypts and decrypts values. Basically
' it is a wrapper for some of the .NET cryptography
' classes.
' Code for this class was originally developed by
' Paolo Miserini [@datamat.it].
' Reference: http://www.dotnet247.com/247reference/msgs/13/65847.aspx
'
' To do list:
' Port to VFP, test with dataevents.
' We should probably create shared version of Deciper and Ciper methods.
'
' Usage sample:
' Dim Cipher As New Cipher()
' Me.txtOriginalValue.Text = Cipher.DeCipher(Me.txtEncrypted.Text, Me.txtKey.Text)
'
'
' Dim Cipher As New Cipher()
' Me.txtEncrypted.Text = Cipher.Cipher(Me.txtOriginalValue.Text, Me.txtKey.Text)
'
