Hi Guys,

Can we pass empty values to dataset & sequential file ?

Can we pass NULL values to dataset & sequential file ?

If so then please let me know how we can read that values in dataset and sequential file.

Data Sets, yes to NULL values and yes to empty value only if the data type is VarChar.

For sequential files and File Sets you need to specify how NULL is to be represented, typically through the Null Field Value property. Empty value can only be written to VarChar field.
