Ok I'm using the EMS PostgreSQL Manager Pro utility to export my data into a XML, the thing is that when I got a bytea field, which i use to save files, when i tried to import the XML I have just create the file is corrupt.
I believe it has something to do with the XML encoding I'using or something like that???
Any help please.
The bytea field I'm using it to save PDF file!!!!!

Well, binary data in XML needs to be uuencoded afaik, and of course you'll want to put it in a CDATA block.
PostgreSQL doesn't have any XML support built-in, but there's at least one project that has stuff to help deal with XML. I think it's in pgFoundry, though there may be some stuff in contrib as well.

Naybe you missunderstood me, i need to export all the data of a table into an XML format, and I'm afraid to have any trouble with the bytea data type that I use to store files. Can't you tell if there is any problem with that and if not how do I do the export to XML???

No reason to do that in the database... though if you end up storing XML
you should just stick it in a text field.
