Encrypt, Decrypt password in Mysql

Inserting password encrypted to database using the following sql.

INSERT INTO PASSWORD(pass) VALUES(DES_ENCRYPT('user password'));

Instead of DES_ENCRYPT() method you can come up with your own function.

Selecting password from database to a string.

SELECT DES_DECRYPT(pass) FROM PASSWORD ;
