SIMPLE ENCRYPTION USING XOR
[needs checking]
************************************************************
function Encrypt(const S: String; Key: Word): String;
var
I: byte;
begin
Result[0] := S[0]; //*******
for I := 1 to Length(S) do begin
Result[I] := char(byte(S[I]) xor (Key shr 8));
Key := (byte(Result[I]) + Key) * C1 + C2;
end;
end;
function Decrypt(const S: String; Key: Word): String;
var
I: byte;
temp : string;
begin
temp[0] := S[0];
for I := 1 to Length(S) do begin
temp[I] := char(byte(S[I]) xor (Key shr 8));
Key := (byte(S[I]) + Key) * C1 + C2;
end;{for}
result := temp;
end;
possibly replace the asterisked line above with this line:
SetLength(Result, Length(S));
Since "If you leave that out, you will get problems.
Without it, your Result string has either a random length
or a length of 0 (I don't remember which right now).
So your Result[I] lines will try to change a non-existent
character and raise an error".

Hi Tomislav,
I recently spent hours looking around the 'Net and evaluating different
cryptography components. There is an excellent collection at
http://www.efg2.com/Lab/Library/Delphi/MathFunctions/Cryptography.htm
I found the "Delphi Encryption Compendium" listed on this page to be the best
collection of tools for what I wanted. It took a little painful work to get
them up and running, but it was well worth the effort.
hth,
Chris.
