Can I check what characters can be in an encrypted string as generated by mcEncrypt(). This is the function used to produce passwords by the Ask dialog but it is not documented in the help. I'd like to be sure that a generated password can't include the tab character as I want to store user passwords in tab-delimited records. Also, I'm generating dummy user data and want to generate passwords based on combinations of first names, surnames, initials etc. and don't want to generate passwords containing my field/item separator! Also, I'm assuming that there isn't an mcDecrypt (common practice with password systems is that they are one-way process only). If there is a decryption function, what is it called and what are its parameters?
