Really? When I do something like that, a body field with no data at all throws an exception. I knew it - Drupal hates me!

Nancy, I tend to do the following (using body as an example) in pseudo standard data import script.
$body = $wrapper->body->value(); if (empty($body)) { // Do something, for example set a value to avoid Undefined variable notices $wrapper->body->set(array('value' => '')); } // Now I can deal with the data as if it were populated. if ($wrapper->body->value->raw() != $this->Body) { $wrapper->body->set(array('value' => $this->Body, 'format' => 'full_html')); }
