Hi Sean. The reference that you mentioned is just for Inclusion in the SQL commands directly. But......... I am trying to load coma seperated data using COPY FROM STDIN command (TEXT mode) and using PQputCopydata API. COPY FROMSTDIN command requires user to specify coma seperated text version of all the data. My question is: If I have binary data(bytea) then I have to convert this data into string (char *) form and pass this datato PostgreSQL using PQputCopydata API. And, I don't have any API in Libpq to convert binary data into string.

Will that satisfy your needs, or did I miss what you aretrying to do?

Thanks for the reply. I have one more question. While extracting data using COPT TO command (in TEXT mode) we have an API, PQunescapeBytea, toconvert string representation of binary data(bytea) into binary. Similary we need to convert binary data into it's stringrepresentation while loading data into PostgreSQL ,using COPY FROM command in TEXT mode, with PQputCopydata. But thereis no API to convert binary data into it's string representation. Could you tell me API or I am misinterpreting something.
