Hi all,

Am unable to insert record where there is null values for numeric data in Access DB.
I have approximately 58 fields and 500 records.

Is there any possible way to do the insert?

Many Thanks

You can only insert a null value into a field if that field is nullable. If it is not nullable, you have two choices; change the column type so that it can be null; insert a sentinel value such as int.MinValue to simulate this and act on the data to convert it to a null on the way out.

When you insert, you supply a DBNull to add null into the column.
