What would be nicer, imho, is if we didn't have to keep track of those
null indicators - let the system do it. Provide us with a function
%isNull(fieldname) or something, and let it figure it out. Sooo much
simpler.

To all the recent responses.... Keep in mind that the SQL
Indicator array is about so much more than just nulls. This is why it is
NOT called the SQL Null Indicator array.
