What datatype do you have that column set to? I can help you if I know what datatype 
you are using.

Do a select from the table with the ID you are going to use in the
update, if the select query returns a recordcount > 0 then update it, if
not then don't.

Ok,

I am interested in peoples opinions on the following:

Is it best practice to check for a records existence before attempting
to update it? And what would the best way to go about that be?
