I have a database for an online store. I have a table for Credit and a table saving the payments records. I have encrypted the credit values and users passwords. I got a stored procedures doing a transaction to deduct the total amount of products from the user's credit. Since I have encrypted the credit in an ASP.NET application, and SQL Server has no idea how i have done that and I have no ability to decrypt data in the stored procedure, I wonder how i can do this job properly.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you so much in advance

you can't.
[EDIT]
ok, maybe you can with sp_OA* sproc family... look that up in BOL.
[/EDIT]

one way to do this is to have a table
create table CreditCards (id uniqueidentifier, encryptedNumber varchar(50))
this way you have credit cards encrypted only in one place and you can use it's guid as a reference in your db.
