\When I am doing an update, do I reall have to use the following line of code to set null values ?

UPDATE    customer
SET name = <cfif arguments.CustomerBean.getName() is ''><cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" value="#arguments.CustomerBean.getName()#" maxlength="40" null="yes" /><cfelse><cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" value="#arguments.CustomerBean.getName()#" maxlength="40" null="no" /></cfif>,

It seems a bit cumbersome and I was wondering if there is a better way.


Try this Callum:
<cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" value="#arguments.CustomerBean.getName()#" maxlength="40" null="#NOT len(arguments.Customerbean.getName())#" />

#NOT len(arguments.Customerbean.getName())# will produce = NO when the string has GT 0 characters #NOT len(arguments.Customerbean.getName())# will produce = YES when the string EQ 0 characters in length (or essentially NULL in this case)

Best,
.Peter
