thanks Massimo for this tip... I used the blob field to store AES encrypted Credit Card, and everything worked fine to store it but when I was reading records from the table I was getting this error: File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/base64.py", line 76, in b64decode TypeError: Incorrect padding
Once I changed the field from blob to text the problem went away...
