I'm having trouble comparing fields stored in variables if any of the variables has a NULL value. Basically when I say:

IF X = Y THEN
    Z;
END IF; ... if one of the 2 values contains a NULL value and the other doesn't, then the condition passes and Z is processed.... but the 2 values are NOT equal .. one is NULL?? If anyone can help can you send me an email at brian_connor_at_gmacm.com

Thanks
