Hi Ganesh,
I am not really familiar with the PostgreSQL ODBC driver at all, but I
know that in libpq you need to specify a binary output format to get
the bytea info as binary. I do not know how that is done in the PostgreSQL
ODBC driver. Good luck and maybe someone with more ODBC knowledge will
comment.
