His question was, should one use null values or should one use artificially reserved real data values to indicate missing values, as MySQL appears to have recommended at some point. My suggestion was to use null values. Of course, if you don't want null values, you declare your column accordingly. -- Peter Eisentraut http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/ ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
