Eliminating Blank Fields from reports
Greetings:
Using the "+" to peform a "null propagation" as outlined in http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ac...494721033.aspx by Sal Ricciardi does not seem to work when the data is numeric. Is there a work around for this? For example: =Trim([chrDataAlways] & ("; "+[chrDataSometimes])) where chrDataSometimes is text data. This works! =Trim([chrDataAlways] & ("; "+[intDataSometimes])) where intDataSometimes is numeric data. This produces an error). Thanks for any help. -- Steve |

Eliminating Blank Fields from reports
Use Str() around the numeric field:
=Trim([chrDataAlways] & ("; "+Str([intDataSometimes]))) -- Allen Browne - Microsoft MVP.
