Trimming does not fix the problem. Should I trim when I encrypt the variable or Decrypt? Tried both but to no avail.

I never managed (or bothered) to try and figure it out. But it's good to know it wasn't just me :-) It seems like CF throws in some special invisible characters when encrypting the value, that mess things up when trying to decrypt.
