This statement encrypts the data with MD5.

Blob lblb_data
Blob lblb_md5
String ls_data

lblb_data = Blob("Test MD5", EncodingANSI!)

CrypterObject lnv_CrypterObject
lnv_CrypterObject = Create CrypterObject

// Encrypt with MD5
lblb_md5 = lnv_CrypterObject.MD5(lblb_data)

Coderobject lnv_code
Lnv_code = create coderobject
//Encode the MD5 blob data to be hex data and output as a string
Ls_data = lnv_code.hexencode(lblb_md5)
