Hi,

I have an bytea field that contains data with a lot of trailing blank space composed of multiple '\000' zero bytes. Does anyone know of a quick SQL fix to trim these bytes from the data?

trim() will remove '\000' bytes from both ends -- would that work for you?

select trim('\\000'::bytea from '\\00012\\00034\\000\\000'::bytea);
  btrim
----------
 12\00034
(1 row)
