title: Selecting Data from Compressed TEXT Column in Sybase
body: <p>In Sybase 15.03 we have a table with column named "content" type TEXT.
  It contains compressed contents of the file, looks something like this when doing straight select:
  H4sIAAAAAAAAAL2Y21IjOQyG7/cp+nJny9UjWbIszx2QQDIJhMmhanff/0H2d6cpSOKh2ZoMQFWS</p>
  
  <p>How can I select/extract/uncompress/decompress its value, so I can examine its content?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you.
