Hi Barnabas,

Thank you for this straightforward workaround. Would it then possible via
SQL view (or another way?) to transfer the existing data of the old DE to
the new one? By doing so, we can also set the empty value to an hypothetic
one, so that the new DE won't contain any null value.

Regards,

Tantely.
