I am using Delphi 7 and CryptoPressStream. When encrypted, the encrypted string could include "control" type characters that I'm worried could mimic an "End of Record" character.
Is there any danger that the encrypted password string, when stored in the DB, could corrupt the table or DB? Should I use a different field type than VARCHAR(50) ?
(Not sure if I want to use a BLOB SUB_TYPE 0 field for this... seems overkill)
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
