I tried this real quick at the psql command prompt, and unfortunately it

mydb=# select ('1' || repeat('0',7))::bit varying;
ERROR: cannot cast type text to bit varying
I appreciate the try though. Any other ideas? I am using PostgreSQL
8.2.3.1. I don't know if that matters too much.
Ah, sorry - that was an 8.3-only cast.
I think your only real option will be to build your query as a string
and use EXECUTE to get the bit-varying you want in your function.
