I have a situation where I need to update dates in a primary table from
regular imports of data, eg: this is the base select query

select d.row_id,
fname||lname,'joineddate',d.joineddate,'joineddate',s.joineddate,0 as bool1
from import s join  members d on d.contact_id=s.contact_id where

cast(nullif(d.joineddate,NULL) as timestamp) !=
cast(nullif(s.joineddate,'') as timestamp)

This gives zero records, however I cant seem to get a query that works.
For non-date fields I just use
Coalesce(fieldprime,'')!=coalesce(fieldiimport,'') which works fine but
chokes on dates where there is a blank value

thanks in advance
