Hello Wolfgang,  first of all, thanks by your example...

I have tried this:

==================
procedure TForm3.DoEncrypt(InputFilename: string; OutputFilename: 
string; MyPassword: string);
var
  cryptContext : TCryptContext;
  key          : AnsiString;
  data         : TMemoryStream;

begin
  data := TMemoryStream.Create;
  data.LoadFromFile(InputFileName);

  key := MyPassword;

  try
    cryptContext := TCryptContext.Create(CRYPT_ALGO_3DES);
    try

      cryptContext.SetAttribute(CRYPT_CTXINFO_MODE, ord(CRYPT_MODE_ECB));
      cryptContext.SetAttributeString(CRYPT_CTXINFO_KEY, key);
      //---> ECB mode  --- 
cryptContext.SetAttributeBinary(CRYPT_CTXINFO_IV, @iv, 8);
      cryptContext.Encrypt(@data, data.size);  // Here the error...

    finally
      cryptContext.Destroy;
    end;
    data.SaveToFile(OutputFilename);
  except
     on E:Exception do
       ShowMessage(E.ClassName + ': ' + E.Message);
  end;
end;
==================

But I have _always_ the error:
     Bad argument, parameter 3

but I don't know what is the parameter 3.

Greetings...
