If the data is binary then you could store it in a BYTEA column. How to get such data into the database depends on the client interface -- you could escape the data appropriately and embed it into an INSERT statement, or you could use a parameterized query that either transfers binary data using the PostgreSQL protocol (available in 7.4 and later) or automatically escapes the data. See your interface documentation for more information. -- Michael Fuhr
