10.1B SQL Select field1, NULL from Table

Does 10.1B ODBC driver support the ability to query a table and specify an explicit NULL value in the results?

For example

Select

     pub."table".field1 Code,

     null SecondCode

from

     pub."table"

when executing the above I get the following ODBC error

Syntax error in SQL statement at or about "null FROM pub."table" " (10713)
