You might try using the trim function when setting the variable.
<cfset txtoutput = #Trim(get_report.report)#>
This will remove the trailing spaces that might be invalidating the encrypted
string.

Subject: Does Anyone understand encrypt/decrypt??? [CF-Talk]
Greets,
I am attempting to encrypt a text file and store it in an SQL table.
First, I create a name, and then see if the file exists...
<cfset outfile = "\\web1\reports\cr_store\#answer3#"> (where answer3 is the
filename)
<cfif fileexists ("#outfile#")>
Then, read the file into a variable
<cffile action = "read" file="#outfile#" Variable="txtoutput">
Create a key
<cfset key='1234567'>
Then encrypt it
<CFSET encrypted = encrypt(txtoutput, key)>
and then I store '#encrypted#' in a text field in an SQL7 table.
Not bad so far...
Now, when I try and view the file, I again set the key,
<cfset key='1234567'>
And retrieve the field from a query I ran
<cfset txtoutput = #get_report.report#>
then I attempt to decrypt the file
<cfset decrypted = decrypt(txtoutput, key)>
And I get the error...
The value to be decrypted is no valid.
Any ideas????
Marcus the Desperate
