Hi,
   Please explain me is there any difference if i load my files(like gif or any images files) into the data base as text format?
Bcoz,I have loaded my image files in a text format into the database and when i exported it into my local file system the content of the original file(i.e. imported file into DB) and the exported file from the DB are different.
What is the wrong i did?In which format i have to load my file.Is it only for image files or for all types of files(like js,asp,htm etc)
I installed postgresql8.0 ..
 
 
Please help me in resolving this issue.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Sandhya
