Hi,

I am currently using pgcrypto functions (encrypt(), decrypt()) on postgresql
7.4.1. There seems to be a problem when ever I try to insert a string that
contains "\\" (2 slashes next to each other"). it gives an error message
saying that it is not a valid entry for type bytea. I am using rijndael as
the algrothim.

Can any one tell me why this would be happening? Thanks for your time

Thanks

Ismail
