Encryption on 1 field

Is there a way to encrypt just one field in a table? If not I guess I could
use MD5. Can anybody make a suggestion on the best way to do this?Hi
As I undestood you would like to store the passwords, am I right?
As far as I know you cannot encrypt only one field and regarding to storing
the passwords do search on internet ,there are posts (examples) by Steve
Kass how to encrypt and store them.

You can do it from clint app, or you can use 3rd party tools - check
http://www.activecrypt.com/products.html, for example.

What I want to do is encrypt credit card numbers.
