Editfield and text encoding question

[Laurent Vidonne <list dot reader at asialogique dot com>]

Hello,

While I was working on some encryption classes, I found that displaying 
a ciphertext in an Editfield, and then trying to decrypt the 
Editfield.Text would fail, whereas the same encryption/decryption would 
work if the intermediate ciphertext was _not_ displayed (e.g. only kept 
in a String property somewhere).
The ciphertext, coming from a Memoryblock (ciphertext = m.Stringvalue 
...), has no encoding. When I write cipherField.Text = ciphertext, it 
seems that RB applies the default UTF-8 encoding, which is fine with me.
What I don't understand is that it seems that the data is somehow 
changed : if I now try to decrypt cipherField.Text, I get  a checksum 
error and garbage.
Can someone explain ?

Thanks,

Laurent Vidonne
