Sorry for the attachment, but copying and pasting this data does not work.

I don't have any idea how to insert the type of data into PostgreSQL. 
Basically, it's encrypted data in which I would like that keep raw format.

Thanks for any help,
J

If the data is binary then you could store it in a BYTEA column.  How
to get such data into the database depends on the client interface --
you could escape the data appropriately and embed it into an INSERT
statement, or you could use a parameterized query that either
transfers binary data using the PostgreSQL protocol (available in
7.4 and later) or automatically escapes the data.  See your interface
documentation for more information.

And if for some reason you have to stick with inserts, group them into
transactions; it will perform much better than individual transactions.
