Well I have a few years of Oracle behind me and it has to said I was
working on that assumption.
With that said if '' does != NULL then what does? Just NULL? In my book
NULL means undefined and IMHO you can't get more undefined than ''!
I called my stored function passing NULL as a parameter and sure enough
the error was raised. So, what I'm going to have to do now is add code to
either the C++ application or within the script to trap empty $.
Oh well.
