Default value on an item ignores database NULL

martinbnMar 22 2011 — edited Apr 6 2011
Hi

We use APEX 4.0.2 and have an issue with "Default Value" on text items:

- We create a new form with a report.
- Put a default value on a textfield "a"
- When editing records where the textfield "a" is null, APEX replaced the field value with the default (event though the previous saved values wass null).

This is very bad, since users will have unwanted default values in fields.
I assume this should NOT be standard behavior.

Can anybody verify that this is a bug, or shoul I always use computations (with a condition on the primary key) ?

Brgds
Martin
