i'm not 100% sure about sql server but i think it doesn't accept null value for date type columns but in oracle, a date column can accept a null value. and since i'm using oracle, this is causing some problems because in my form, a textbox item bound to a date column will not accept a null value. reading thru some threads, it would seem that it is not possible to pass a null value to a date type in .Net.

View 5 RepliesI have an ASP.NET application that crashes when a null date value is returned.
The code line is:
excelWorksheet.Cells("A" & xlRowCounter).Value = IIf(IsDBNull(dRow("sysdate")), "", Format(dRow("sysdate"), "MM/dd/yyyy"))
Error message:
ERROR: System.ArgumentException: Argument 'Expression' is not a valid value.

Im writing an app which connects to a SQL Server database, via datasources / datatable.When Im looking at my .xsd I can see DataTables containing DataColumns. Each DataColumn has a 'NullValue' property which defaults to '(Throw exception)'.Because I have nulls in my tables I have gone through the fields and set all System.String fields to NullValue = 'Empty', System.int32 field to NullValue = 0.

Unfortunately, it writes "01/01/1900" to the database. How do I get it to just leave the field as NULL?
How can I get this to happen? I googled around and it seems setting the CUSTOM FORMAT to " " when the field is null will work but not for a BOUND datetimepicker.

I started out with just one table called products but I had problems with doing an update; it said sql to complex which was because the product table had nearly 100 columns in. The products table consists of header information like product quality, colour etc. Then there are 3 blocks of columns which mainly consist of a size as being the column name and a quantity as being the value. I have put these in three seperate tables to get around the SQL update problem. My problem is what is the best way to code this. The tables link to the header table using an autonumber primary key.

I'm fairly new to ASP.NET & VB.I've been asked to take an existing textbox that is automatically filled with the current date and allow the user to either add a "+" or "-" and a number or a spcific number and convert that into a date.I underdstand the basic concept on how to do this, but I'm running into some problems using the proper commands in order for this to work.The Textbox is called txtDate.What I've tried to do is this:
If txtDate = '+' Or '-' Then
DateAdd("d", txtDate, today)
End If
Here is what the whole thing looks like:

How can I pass a NULL value to my function?
I think this is a pretty basic question, but I just want to clarify. If I have a variable with a null value, and pass it as a parameter that is optional, will the parameter get the null value, or the default value?

dim obj As Object
//call 1

I have a function that accepts a String by reference:Function Foo(ByRef input As String)
If I call it like this:
Foo(Nothing)
I want it to do something different than if I call it like this:Dim myString As String = Nothing Foo(myString) Is it possible to detect this difference in the way the method is called in VB .NET?All the logic is in the second overload, but I want to perform a different branch of logic if Nothing was passed into the function than if a variable containing Nothing was passed in.

I am working with a table that contains about 10,000 records of which I need to do additional processing on about 1500. The records I need to process are qualified by the field'Cataloged' = True. The problem I have is the table allows for True, False or Null values (I have no direct control of the table to change from allowing Null) for the field I need to test.I run into errors when the value of the field is Null and need to figure out how to determine its Null state prior to trying to qualify the field as True or False value to prevent the errors.
I'm trying to test a varbinary(max) field to see if it's null. I'm trying to figure out if it's a null or not in the select statement, hoping to avoid having to do this locally for every row of the returned dataset. This is the SQL I'm using,
