Stephenie I've never had your exact problem, but I have experience difficulty with NULL values in Oracle from ColdFusion using the default JDBC/ODBC drivers. I have several times created queries that would throw JDBC/ODBC errors since I was selecting fields that contained NULL values particularly date fields with NULL values. I resolved this problem this week by installing the Oracle JDBC Thin Client, and setting up a datasource to use that instead. Resolved my misbehaving query at least.
