Thanks Fred,

That's really informative.

>>I can enter a null using the keyboard using control+0. However the '0' must be the zero from the numbers at the top of the keyboard not the numeric keypad.

>>Has anyone else seen this problem? Is there a way to make the numeric keypad zero work?

>No, that's the way it is. It's not really the '0' that's important, it's the keyboard's scan code for that key position that's actually used. It's just like the capability to enter any character from the keypad by holding down Alt and pressing the 3 digit ascii code for the character on the keypad and then releasing the Alt key. You can't use the top row of numbers to do that. Ahh, consistency!
