----- Original Message -----From: Hoanui MorangieHi,
I understand that this behavior is a standard but agree with Bruno that it's nonsense. I have trouble with it in my own application. I use sql command like "select * from A where A.a=? and A.b=? and A.c=? and A.d=? and A.e=?". There are five parameters in my query and each of them can be null! I can not create SQL command string for all possible combinations of null values so I have to build the query dynamically. Why then use prepared statement?
I doubt that anybody ever needed x=null in SQL command but it seems that my example is very common. There SHOULD be some workaround for that. But I agree that this is not topic for this list.
don't use NULLs - introduce a dummy value that bears the semantic of NULL so u can use "= XXX" instead of " is NULL"
hth,
