Re: splitting text that contains an encrypted value

Three things that may work:

These are, of course, all good answers to the question. For the sake of
completeness I would add a fourth (which is, however, not as good as
any of the three that John mentioned).

You could use a control character as your delimiter (I believe it
highly unlikely that your encrypted password field would contain any
control characters). For example, you could use ctrl-a (chr 1). You
can specify '\ca' (control-a) in a regular expression.

There are several reasons why this is a bad idea, though.
