(This comes from the JDBC list but it's a question for everyone)
So this no longer works in 7.2:
select * from tablename where foo = null;
But what about the isnull operator/keyword/whatever it is...
select * from tablename where foo isnull;
I use that on occasion (in 7.1.2)...did this change in 7.2 also?
