crelf Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 The "Database Varient to data" Function available in Database Connectivity addons is not working with LabVIEW 8.2.0. What about it doesn't work? Can we just use the standard "Variant to Data" primative? If not, why not? Quote Link to comment
Jim Kring Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 What about it doesn't work? Can we just use the standard "Variant to Data" primative? If not, why not? From what I think I understand, the Database Variant to Data primitive handles the ActiveX Variant "Null" value in a special way (basically, it doesn't barf as the Variant to Data primitive would). This is important, since database records can have null values for fields. Quote Link to comment
