>> This sounds correct since the field has to be null capable and I can't think of how to define a null capable field on a d-spec. What if you created a file with a null capable field and defined it as an external data structure? Defining it in an external DS won't help. It does not retain it's null capability. I believe that only fields from files are considered null capable, so the only way I can see to handle it would be to define the file for input, but never actually open it! +--- | This is the Midrange System Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com. | To subscribe to this list send email to MIDRANGE-L-SUB@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to MIDRANGE-L-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner/operator: david@midrange.com +---
