Witango-Talk: vs Blank

[Charles Brown]

The <NULL> vs just a blank field is not consistent in my MSSQL 2000 database. Sometmes it enters the <NULL>, sometimes not. This is causing a problem is a search action, which identifies the <NULL> and the "blank" as two seperate values, so I get two or more rows returned for the same individual. (My initial search brings back "unique" individuals meeting the search criteria. A drill down link is provided if the user wants to see all the activities associated with a particular individual. The drill down still works for individuals that are showing up more than once, but it is annoying to me and disconcerting to the users.) Suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
