Thank you for the suggestion!  I was able to add a "BeforeSet" method to my injected Baseentity class to solve the problem.

A BeforeSet property interceptor action would do the trick.  I guess you could generalize it further to any entity, and in the logic in the interceptor determine if the set should be cancelled.

I have bound the contents of the "Employees" table in my database to a datagrid in my DevForce 2010 Silverlight application.

The "MiddleName" field in the "Employees" table is defined as a Nullable Varchar(30) in the database.
 
If I edit records in the datagrid and then save back to the database how do I ensure that NULL values are written back to the database instead of empty strings for the "MiddleName" field if the "MiddleName" field was left blank in the datagrid?
