Hi Ed Schaefer
I'm sorry about having to reply in here but my mail server
didn't get your email address right.
Anyway, back to my problem. I wasn't inserting a NULL column but an empty
string, which I thought is
not the same as an empty string. An by specifying that the length of the
string is 0, I thought the CLI driver
should treat it as inserting an empty string rather than a NULL.
I had no problem executing the statement directly:
insert into table (column1, column2,...)
values ('', '')
but I couldn't do it using SQLBindParameter. I wonder.
