Start by not using encrypt and decrypt. Instead use cfusion_encrypt() and cfusion_decrypt(). Much better functions. The results are pure alphanumeric.
Weird that this shouldn't work though. What error is CF 5 throwing? Or is it decrypting incorrectly? Is the encrypted value the same on both CF 5 and MX?

Can anyone suggest a workaround? we need this to work for our transition to MX. Thank you!
