MD5 for FileMaker
The MD5 custom function library for FileMaker provides a FileMaker developer with the ability to generate a non-reversible 128-bit "message digest" or "hash" for an arbitrary string. This is done using native FileMaker calculations with no plug-ins or external software.
The hash values are useful as secure checksums for large chunks of data, or instead of storing passwords in applications requiring custom authentication mechanisms.
The MD5 solution file includes documentation and sample/test code.
