You shouldn't be doing anything with it, much less copying it. I think what the OP actually means is he's thinking of importing some images as large objects, then storing their OIDs in a user (not system) column of type oid. COPY can't be used for that though. It might be better to use a bytea column, if you're willing to deal with bytea's weird escaping rules. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
