Good point from both you and David. It really should be a null field but the original reason I posted this was a problem where the driver was sending a null value and the java application using the driver puked on the null value. If I had it set to null that problem would still exist.

Well, if you set the field to null capable, then you should be check to
see if it's null or not before processing the contents.

One of the reasons I really don't like the idea of null capable fields
is that support for null fields isn't all that uniform.
