Interesting.  Do you mean 'Valid Syntax' in that it 'works without error',
or 'Valid Syntax' in that 'it was designed to work that way'?  If the
former, then I would argue as to whether it is valid syntax, since depending
on it would be dangerous.  If the latter, then I have learned something new,
and I'd like to know more about why it is designed to work that way, and how
I could use it to my advantage.

I am aware of what a NULL is.  I suggested the quotes as a troubleshooting
step, since code prior to the NULL was not being displayed.  A 'knee jerk'
suggestion, I concede. (Feel free to substitite your own descriptive phrase
for 'knee jerk' if you must) :-)
