Re: Not null field with default value

Jay, I've only ever worked with paradox before and it used the max value for nulls (e.g. smallint would have range -32,767 to 32,767 and -32,768 would denote a null value). Seems perfectly logical to me and far better than having to add (possibly) several bytes to each record.
