We have a situation whereby an HPL Unload and re-Load is causing a
table that contains Blobs (TEXT and BYTE columns) to replace NULL
entries with NOT NULL values in the destination table.

The process is using the Deluxe Without Replication option and the GUI
(ipload) front end.

Versions:
IDS7.31 on Solaris 10

You are aware that IDS 7.31 is out of support and has been since October
2009.

When did this start happening? Did it happen before? What did you change
when it started happening?

Can you provide a minimal reproduction of the problem (eg on a table CREATE
TABLE BlobExample(ID SERIAL NOT NULL, Blob TEXT IN TABLE) and the relevant
information from HPL - the job setup etc.
