Question in un used Relevant gets empty string?

dougbrowning

It is looking like any question in a relevant that is never used gets assigned empty string "".  I would think it would get Null but no it is empty string.  I have a conversion script that gets tripped up trying to put a empty string in a Int field. 

I can program around it but wondering if there is a way to change this.  I would prefer Null.

Thanks

Hi Doug,

Unfortunately there is no way to change this and it is the expected behaviour of the app for a question that is not relevant. A null value and empty string are different (as I'm sure you know), and for purposes of editing and using the Inbox in the app, not relevant question are required to behave this way.
