Hi Christoph,
Thanks for ur reply.
Let me explain my problem..., In one of my table.. we used bytea datatype for one field.. actaully i want to know the original stored contents (not in byte's) from that field by using pgsql scripts.


Thanks in advance..

With regards
Vijay

Not sure if that's what you are asking for but you can do e.g.

$PGSQLD/bin/psql -d <your-dbase-name> -f ./query2.txt > ./query2.res

./query2.txt has something like
select * from bytea_tab ;

then you'll find all non-printables in  ./query2.res
properly escaped as octets as shown in Data Types - Binary Strings.

HTH

Regards, Christoph
