Void on mac, empty string on win

Maybe, as it seems to be able to put <NULL> in the message window,
which is not documented anywhere.

In this case, the value in database should not be NULL since I create
the record with an empty string.

I verified in vstudio that the same lingo insertion code (which
provides my text field with an empty string) creates a record with an
empty string on windows and a record with a NULL value on mac.

Yes if it is created without specifying a value (correct) or if it is
created on mac, even with an initial empty string (which is not
correct).

So the bug could be resumed as:
On Macintosh, a record insertion with an empty string stores a NULL
value in a text field instead of an empty string.

Yes, on windows.
