-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Subject: Table created by MySQL driver is not usable by GRASS

Platform: GNU/Linux/i386
grass obtained from: Trento Italy site
grass binary for platform: Compiled from Sources
GRASS Version: grass-6.1.cvs_src_snapshot_2005_06_04

The varchar() and integer fields have a default value of [NULL] when a new table has been created by GRASS. However, for example the v.digit cannot open a table where the fields have NULL values, so the fields cannot be edited. Each table has to be corrected manually by opening them with some other program and replacing the NULL values either with spaces or zeros; after that, everything works, but this is not the way it should be: a zero value has a meaning different from a NULL value.

Greetings,

Harri K.
