Hello,

I probably have a stupid question but I can`t clear the contents of an integer field (with Allow Null) in a method. ![:?:]( "Question")

Can anyone give me an example??

Something like.

IntegerField = 0  
IntegerField = “”  
IntegerField = null

With kind regards Rene.

the last one should work fine (just tested it..)

numberField = null;

Doesn’t it work for you? Can you give me an example?

Yes Now it`s working just fine.

I was clearing this value through a Relation and in some records (just about all I`ve tried) the master value was empty,

So I got an error: “Couldn`t convert an object to Null”

Meaning the relation isn`t available while I thought it was referring to the value I was resetting.

Thank you very much for replying Johan

to check if a relation is valid use:

```auto
if (orders_to_order_details)
{
      orders_to_order_details.price = null;
}

```
