Thank you, Sam, for pointing this out. It seems that it is a matter of the schema definition.
I myself dont really like this DB-style defintion of passing null-values through an xml. My rationale would be "easier" a) there is a value for the tag -- fine b) there is no value -- leave the tag emtpy At the moment I dont have any different solution than yours: check the data which is to be set for null, if so, dont set it - a bit inconvinient but correct regarding XML Schema Standard.
