My status column in my Employee table should have two values Active and
Inactive. Right now all the active employees have the value Active and
the rest have a NULL value.
Why is it that the following commands do nothing?

I am terribly sorry about this error.
Hi Matthew,
there are some more comments below but just for the record could you
confirm that you are retrieving one or more rows when you issue the
following SQL:
SELECT * FROM `employee` WHERE `status` IS NULL;
if you are getting no rows back then the obviously updating based on the

Hi there everyone,
I am building a dynamic MySQL query for a project I am working on, but there
are instances where it products WHERE AND instead of WHERE city etc .. due

one simple trick is to use a clause that always evaluates correctly. For
