Actually I think grotycom is asking for tool(s) that would take a long
string and encrypt|encode it into a shorter string that can be used for
input and then decrypted|decoded back into it's original string.
I have done this with the hash() function to store long strings as
unique shorter strings, but it does not allow for the reverse decoding
back to the original string. I am not aware of any tools that do this,
but I'm sure they are out there somewhere.

Why can't you use the "Encrypt" and "Decrypt" functions?..
