System.Security.Cryptography Namespace

Hi,

I want to make a simple application that takes a string of text and encrypts it and then decrypts it.

Would I use the System.Security.Cryptography Namespace and if so how do I use it. I'm asuming you do something like the following:

var1.System.Security.Cryptography

Oh dear - I've just realised what a total noob I still am after a couple of years programming. Please help! Where do I start???

OK - ignore that - I was being a noob. Here's my code so far:

Dim txt2 As New System.Security.Cryptography.Oid

What the heck do I do next? Thanks!
