Problem with NULLs and sybase_fetch_row

I've gotr a Digital Unix box running Apache 1.3.12, FreeTDS 0.50, and PHP 4.0.3pl1 (using the sybase-ct libs) talking to our MSSQL server (7.0), and have noticed a problem with sybase_fetch_row and NULL values. When a NULL is encountered, the array returned by sybase_fetct_row seems to "inherit" the last non-NULL value from a previous call to sybase_fetch_row. For testing purposes I created a small database with 3 columns (a,b,c) with the following data (columns are varchar 50): 1 2 3 10 20 30 NULL 200 300 1000 NULL 3000 10000 20000 NULL NULL NULL I've got a bit of code that connects does a "SELECT a,b,c FROM TABLE1", then uses a while $data = sybase_fetch_array($query) to loop through the results and dump the data. I get the following results -- notice the repeated values (i.e. 3000) where the above table has NULL. Empty strings are OK; it's just NULL that causes a problem. 1 2 3 10 20 30 10 200 300 1000 200 3000 10000 20000 3000 20000 3000 Has anyone seen this before? I'd appreciate _any_ suggestions or tips. I can post my PHP code if people think that's of benefit.
