Message
The user must use IS NULL or IS NOT NULL to test for NULL values.
Explanation
The user tried to use a comparison operator with the NULL constant (for example: X=NULL). This does not make sense, since any comparison against NULL cannot be true. Therefore, the comparison will never return rows.
Generated By
SYN modules.
For Whom
End User.
Notes
None
Remedy
Use the syntax IS NULL or IS NOT NULL to test for null values.
