how can i encrypt and decrypt a database field with ms sql server
 
Hi there,

I don't think if sql server automatically encrypt/decrypt the data in user tables.
You can maintain the security via
1.) LoginName/Password and giving proper access rights (Recommended because cost less overhead).
2.) By writing your own procedure for encrypt/decrypt and call it while retreiving/updating data value)
