Correct

SELECT ... INTO ... FROM ....WHERE someStringColumn is null;

In general, if the Cúram data type corresponds to a Java class (as opposed to a primitive Java type) then its empty state is stored on the database as a null. If the data type corresponds to a primitive Java type then a null on the database is not a valid value for it and theAllow NULLs on this database field option defaults to no. If necessary this default can be overridden.

Note: TheAllow NULLs on this database field option controls the NOT NULL qualifier in generated DDL in an inverted way. Setting this option to no causes the NOT NULL qualifier to be added; setting it to yes causes the qualifier to be omitted.

The following table shows which Cúram data types can be represented as a null on the database.
