That's a great thing to check, but I've already done the side-by-side
check.  All workflow is happening in custom forms, and in my re-check of
the log files, there's nothing setting the fields to NULL that I can see.
Just all of a sudden a field that was populated no longer is.

I'll keep looking.  Maybe I'll run into O.J., looking for who killed
Nicole.  :)
