Actually, what I use is: <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="CF_SQL_INTEGER" null="#not len(myVariable)#" value="#myVariable#" />
It's a true false equation and runs faster than field is "". Also someone mentioned that it doesn't matter, I have experienced where it does. I put null="true" and a value="whatever I want" and it put null in the database, not my value.

Roll your own isNull() UDF to get rid of the IIF. You will get to reuse it a few times I promise! (you could use isEmpty off of CFLIB IIRC as well if your NULL choices are pretty limited) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:254412 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
