I have the following code for updating Account table with LINQ to SQL. AccountNumber is the primary key column. The only value which need to be updated is AccountType; however the Duration also gets updated with zero (default value for int). How can we avoid this unnecessary overwrite?
Note: I am using Attach method
Note: I understand the reason for this behavior. "The DataContext cannot distinguish between a field with an assigned value of zero and one that is merely unassigned.". I am looking for a solution to overcome this.

Table DATA
Table Structure:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Account](
[AccountNumber] [int] NOT NULL,
[AccountType] [nchar](10) NOT NULL,
[Duration] [int] NOT NULL,
[DepositedAmount] [int] NULL,

(
[AccountNumber] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
CODE
public void UpdateAccount()
{
RepositoryLayer.Account acc1 = new RepositoryLayer.Account();
acc1.AccountNumber = 4;
acc1.AccountType = "Verify";
accountRepository.UpdateChangesByAttachAndRefresh(acc1);
accountRepository.SubmitChanges();
}
public virtual void UpdateChangesByAttachAndRefresh(T entity)
{
//Can GetOriginalEntityState cause any bug? Is it unnecessary?
if (GetTable().GetOriginalEntityState(entity) == null)
{
//If it is not already attached
Context.GetTable<T>().Attach(entity);
Context.Refresh(System.Data.Linq.RefreshMode.KeepCurrentValues, entity);
}
}

LINQ to SQL: Updating without Refresh when "UpdateCheck = Never"
I solved this issue by changing the update approach by following the answer in LINQ to SQL: Updating without Refresh when "UpdateCheck = Never"
UpdateCheck is set as Never for the Duration column
public void UpdateAccount()
{
//Used value from previous select
DateTime previousDateTime = new DateTime(2012, 6, 26, 11, 14, 15, 327);
int prevDuration = 0;
RepositoryLayer.Account accEntity = new RepositoryLayer.Account();
accEntity.AccountNumber = 1; //Primary Key
accEntity.ModifiedTime = previousDateTime; //Concurrency column
//accEntity.Duration = prevDuration;
accountRepository.UpdateChangesByAttach(accEntity);
//Values to be modified after Attach
accEntity.AccountType = "WIN-WIN";
accEntity.ModifiedTime = DateTime.Now;
try
{
accountRepository.SubmitChanges();
}
catch(System.Data.Linq.ChangeConflictException e)
{
throw new Exception(e.Message);
}
}
public virtual void UpdateChangesByAttach(T entity)
{
if (Context.GetTable<T>().GetOriginalEntityState(entity) == null)
{
//If it is not already attached
Context.GetTable<T>().Attach(entity);
}
}
Generated SQL
