      Validate text string before and after bind call
      
      While binding string to query, if string is NULL then bind call gets ignored.
      While fetching data from string, if data is NULL then current code makes query
      as NULL and returns.
      
      This patch validates text string before and after bind call. It assigns string
      to "" incase data is NULL points to NULL pointer. After this we will be able
      to display information even if some of string data is NULL.
      
      It also does NULL checks for compulsory string.
