It's me again,
:-)

If you have to store binary data without a way to get the correct length
later, you should instead endode it in a 'textual' form before storage :
base64 or hexa.

Is it what you were asking for ?

Hi again Phil,

May be I read your mail too quickly.

 so we don't have the correct encrypted length value to pass to
the decryption routine.

How is it possible ?
If you stored the encrypted data, you should at least know the size of what
is in the file or the database column, don't you ?
