Dear Community,

My team and I have been experiencing an interesting mysql error during the past few weeks of testing. Here is the scenario we are trying to accomplish. We are essentially working to use MsAccess as a windows client for a linux based mysql databases. We have installed myODBC 3.51 and are using that for communication. We seem to be able to create a linked table just find and select queries work great.

The problem arises when we try to update or insert data. Updates yield the following error:

"You Tried to assign the Null value to a variable that is not a Variant data type." From my searching, I was unable to find how to set fields to variant data types. Secondly, I am not sure which field is causing the error. The second issue was with inserts. On insert of just one field (none are required other than the primary key), ALL of the fields of type text are set to NULL. This is particularly odd and occurs also in the mysql command line utilty.

If anyone has any ideas or experience, please send emails to [EMAIL PROTECTED] We will definitely summarize the solution for the educaitonal purposes of the list. Again many thanks in advance.

Sincerely,,
Ed Maas
