Joe,
Thanks and it can't be that easy can it?
Wow! I can do that :)
Ok, tell me this about the line of code:
myOutputStream.WriteLine MD5( thePassword )
thePassword? Is this the Editfield text, like this - thePassword.text?
Now, we got the writing TO the text file, now how do I read FROM it?
Questions, questions, questions... lol

But, what in the world is MD5?
It's a one-way hash function... that means that it takes a string of text,
and converts it to a string of gibberish, in a way that (1) is unlikely to
produce the same gibberish for two different pieces of text, yet (2)
doesn't provide any practical way to recover the original text from the
gibberish.
I did check the LR, and did see what MD5 is all about but, could you show
me
a simple piece of code that would work. All I need is for the Password
to
be encrypted, then saved to a text file.
myOutputStream.WriteLine MD5( thePassword )
C'est tout!
Best,
- Joe
