Subject: Null Settings (Was INSERT speed - Razzak's Reply)


OK, I KNOW when I hear the answer to this, I'm gonna have a headache from 
slapping myself in the forehead, and yelling "Duuuhhhhhhh" <g> but I HAVE to

ask.

When you define a variable, isn't it already a null value?????
And if I want to explicitly set a variable to null, do I use:

Set Var vName = null

or

Set null -0-
set var vName = -0-

( I KNEW I shouldn't have slept in that part of the class <g>)
TIA.

 William,
 
 01. Make sure that the data type of variables used in 
     expressions matches with the data type of column.
 
 02. Always pre-define those variables as NULL
