How Many VarBinary for each Ascii Char Aes Encrypted KeySize=256,BlockSize=256

Hi. I'm wanting to encrypt customer name, address, etc. information using
Aes with a KeySize of 256 and a BlockSize of 256. Either for each ascii
character or say for a maximum length 50 characters for a field, how many
bytes will this generate and how do I translate
this into the number of VarBinary ?items that I allocate in my Sql Server
2000 table?

It is character by character; so, a byte is a byte is a byte. VARBINARY is
byte by byte; so, VARCHAR(2) is VARBINARY(2). So, is your AES algorythm
fixed-length or variable?
Sincerely,
Anthony Thomas
