Actually, I think I've just remembered part of it, but not the rest.
Appends an empty string:
REC = A
REC-1 =
Doesn't append an empty string:
REC =
REC-1 =
Sets REC2 to an empty string:
REC = A
REC2,-1 =
Doesn't append an empty string:
REC =
REC1,-1 =
I think my mind hasn't returned
I think it depends on what flavour you are in as well - a number of the
older pickies I work with keep forgetting this behaviour so i assume it is
newer rather than older... it is rather annoying when you are building up
some associated arrays and for some reason a null pops up in the data
Well, I always thought this was an inconsistency.
After all unlike SQL in Pick Null is a valid value.
I've never used -1 to suppress the writing of null values into
multi-valued fields because I hoped they would eventually fix that bug.
And for populating attributes I wouldn't use it anyway.
If I
In UniVerse this is configurable via the $OPTIONS EXTRA.DELIM flag as well
as being flavor dependent.
But also in UniVerse, there is a specific null value (@NULL) as opposed to
an empty string which is logically different.

Hi all,
Hopefully I'm not going crazy, but I could have sworn in UD 7.1 that
doing a -1 to append an empty string would not actually appended
anything. For example:
As I understood it, the
I haven't worked a ton with SOAP requests but figured I'd throw this out
there any how...
Do you have a permissions error preventing a write? It seems most of
what you've mentioned that's working are just reads but the one that
write is failing.
