yes, there is.

select <your columns> from <your table> where

<your_text_search_column> like '%'||chr(x'42'::int)||'%'

This does not work for me, but if I convert the hex value to octal this does work:

select comments from fax where comments ~* E'\231';


where '42' is your hexadecimal character value.

Be sure to read and understand everything you can find about encodings; and make sure the hexadecimal value you are searching for is from the same encoding.

Best wishes,
