I have a problem maybe someone can help me with.

I am upgrading my site to ver 7 and I need to check a user�s password. I have an advertising system that runs off the database and in order for someone to log in to it they need to use there forum password.

Heres the code I have now

##########################################

username = Request.Cookies("Forum")("UID")

pass=Request.QueryString("pass")

SQL = "Select * From tblAuthor Where User_code = '"& username &"'"

Set RS = DBConnection.Execute(SQL)

name = RS("Username")

passcheck = RS("password")

salt = RS("salt")

'Check password

pass = pass & salt

'Incript password

pass = HashEncode(pass)

if pass = passcheck Then

#########################################

I get this error

########################################

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a000d'

Type mismatch: 'HashEncode'

/ads/data/pass.asp, line 23

###########################################

Dose anyone have any ideas
