Or all views inside a database? Even i cal also not to able to view the code even not SA user. I came acrossed few stored procedures that were encrypted by previous developers that were no longer here by adding 'with encryption' in the store procedures.

Script for decrypting function works great! Otherwise after running the code I'm left with. I can just copy the decrypted code and paste it again to ALTER it to get it back but it's an extra step. I have some doubts and please clarify me as early as possible why because working as a database developer in a private limited company. Apologies for any confusion and thanks to James for pointing out the omissions.

James Lean - Thanks for your comments. I've re-reviewed what I've written about the DAC and I'm a bit confused to be honest, as I cannot now replicate the last steps in the article above to read the decrypted data. I also get NULL values, same as you. Looking elsewhere, I can see details of the decryption algorithm used XORs character-by-character of the cryptotext to get the plaintext via the DAC but no evidence the DAC itself is the key. If this is the case then the final points I made about using the DAC are incorrect and I apologise for this I'm also baffled as to how I got the plaintext out in my screenshot!

I would highly recommend the StackOverflow link above for details of the algorithm required for decryption. I may be missing something, but I can't get this to work just by using the DAC to view the encrypted definition. I know it is fairly trivial to use third-party tools anyway, but at least you have to go to a little bit of effort that way ;-.
