I also did a lot of playing around and finally settled on this code that works
If Function = 'ENCRYPT';
EXEC SQL SET :ResultVarying = ENCRYPT_TDES(:InputVarying, :pw);
Endif;
If Function = 'DECRYPT';
EXEC SQL SET :ResultVarying = DECRYPT_CHAR(
cast(:InputVarying as char(5000) for bit data), :pw);
Endif;

Subject: Decrypt_Char
I have been playing around with some encryption with SQL and I can get it
encrypted just fine......however, trying to decrypt it just is not
working.
I have a table with one field created, its a char(25).
I encrypted the data with the following command
INSERT INTO DPTEST1 VALUES ENCRYPT_RC2('SCOTT', 'PASSWORD1','')
it works, however when I try to decrypt it with the following, I get a
"ARGUMENT 01 of Function DECRYPT_CHAR not valid:
SELECT DECRYPT_CHAR( SSN, 'PASSWORD1') FROM DPTEST1
Any idea what I am doing wrong?
