Depends how far you want to go. The DES encryption algorithm will be way to
slow in software. It's usually done in hardware for speed and security.
Alternatively, consider using Palm's private records. It's easy, but
vulnerable to rogue programs that don't follow the rules.
For something in the middle, look up Warren Ward's article in the C/C++
User's Journal, Sept 98, about a low cost, low memory, stream encryption. I
haven't used it, so I don't know how applicable it is the the Palm platform.
It's just something I filed away, just in case I'll need it in the future.
Good luck,
