(About the author)
 
     The SC2C Field Cipher combines fractionation and transposition to a very powerfull text encryption. It is a straightforward implementation of a straddling checkerboard, followed by a double columnar transposition, providing a very secure cipher. The advantage of this field cipher is that you can use both this program and the pencil-and-paper method to encrypt or decrypt your text messages. You can go for the comfort of this program, or use the cipher "in the field", without any technical means such as PC or Crypto Machine. Follow in the footsteps of many secret agents and Signal Corps operators. Just memorize 3 keywords to protect your secret text.

Thanks Dirk! For some reason I don't always understand the reading, but after viewing your code using it as an example and following it, it makes much more sense!

I've made SC2C running in Windows CE enviroment on HPC (Jornada 680). It needed only a few minor changes (eg. function Mid on the left side of an assignment statement is not supported in eVB - I used "Left(..)&..&Left(..)" instead).
