&lt;br&gt;
The default behavior should be that these fields are retrieved without throwing an exception, i.e. they should return string.Empty if dbNull is retreived. If should require an override to enable the bo to throw the "Unable to cast object of type 'System.DBNull' to type 'System.String'." exception.</description><pubDate>Thu, 11 May 2006 09:01:05 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Daniel Essin</dc:creator></item><item><title>RE: dbNull</title><link>http://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost1201.aspx</link><description>Yes, we're looking into project default settings that allow you to specify your own default behavior for the different common return types.&amp;nbsp; And the Customization Wizard will help greatly with that as well.</description><pubDate>Thu, 11 May 2006 09:01:05 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>StrataFrame Team</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
