I don't think so... regression=# create table test (c1 text,c2 bytea); CREATE TABLE regression=# insert into test values ('some text', 'some binary data \\000\\001'); INSERT 284058 1 regression=# select * from test; c1 | c2 -----------+--------------------------- some text | some binary data \000\001 (1 row) I see no OID here. Perhaps you should show us an example of what you are doing, rather than your interpretation of what's going wrong. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html
