| Hello,when I update a record like this:strSQL = " UPDATE employee SET Firstname = '" & [Forms]![Frmemployee]![txtname] & "'" ... etc.the problem is that I loose the null value where the fields are empty.How can I make it so that when a field is empty the value in the table becomes Null ?Thanks in advance,Sven. |
