It looks like you're probably trying to insert the text NULL rather than a
NULL into the column. I can insert a NULL with insert or in a copy if I
use the correct nullstring (you can set what is read as a null with a NULL
[ AS ] 'nullstring' option to copy. Can you give a full example of what
you were trying?
