One column in a table has values for the attribute 'stream'. Some queries return some rows where a stream name (only identified one so far) has an appended '+'. I cannot update the table to remove that appended character, and I've not seen this before.
Is this only in psql? If so I would suspect the table formatting code. What happens if you do \x and then look at the records?
Example: 2220 | STV | 2012-07-12 | Nematoda | | | | | Omnivore | 50 | | StarvationCrk+| Owyhee | | | | | | | | | | | | 2701 | STV-10 | 2013-07-10 | Nematoda | | | | | Omnivore | 36 | | StarvationCrk | Owyhee I'd appreciate learning where that '+' originates and how to get rid of it. A query to count the rows with the appendage returns zero: select count(*) from benthos where stream = 'StarvationCrk'; count ------- 204 select count(*) from benthos where stream = 'StarvationCrk+'; count ------- 0 TIA, Rich
