I don't think you can actually expect to export from one database vender to another and not expect to have to tweak a few things. Do a simple export/import from access to mysql and see what happens, it ain't disney nor pixel fairy dust, it won't be "exact" or "perfect" nor should you expect it to be.

I've never seen that behavior before. Ever. Well, actually, yes I have, but only when the data was imported into the MySQL tables from another database, and the not null rule was applied to the field *after* the data was already put into place. Sounds like you've inherited a strange, strange setup. -- Richard S.
