One particular bit of SQL you may find helpful is this: concat(ifnull(a_id,""),ifnull(a_text,"")) concat with anything and a null value will produce a null value. That snippet of sql code will help you get one answer from the 2 the original database had.

Well, there shouldn't be any cases like that, but I'll can run a quick query to check.
