Just look on DBMS_OBFUSCATION_TOOLKIT especially procedure DES3Encrypt/DES3Decrypt, is quite similar to DESEncrypt (just DES encryption) from previous versions, only new parameter is WHICH (but can be used with default 0).
Examples and howto are in Oracle 9i - Supplied PL/SQL packages and types reference. It should be everything you need, is really straightforward
to use.
