    There are many examples and discussions on the web. This one uses SQL capabilities:

    When developing modern applications or enhancing legacy ones, an RPG or DB2 routine may need to apply an MD5 hash to application data. Fortunately, IBM i/OS offers a machine interface operation called CIPHER to make the task of implementing MD5 relatively simple.

    Hi Sandra,

    my reply by email seems messed up - so here again. 

    What API are you using? Qc3CalculateHash?

    I have done some programming using Qc3CalculateHash with SHA-512 hashes. 
    What problems to you have?
    Regards,
    Daniel

    Hi Sandra,

    which IBM i version/release are you using? AFAIK the HASH_MD5 function was introduced with 7.4.

    I just found this sample code using the API Qc3CalculateHash, it looks pretty good, I'll try this out:
