Hi friends,

I would appreciate that if anyone can share the idea to bring up ' 0' after SQL query returns null in Report 2.5 ? What I mean is in Report 2.5, if I have four SQL queries and each query will returns each quarterly data and I need to display ' 0' even though there
is no records return for the 2nd quarter.

My report now can display data like below and the SQL query is /* select count(rain_days), count(sunshine_days) from weather

     where quarter='2' */ and the return is null

quarter                 qtr1    qtr3    qtr4


rain days #             20       15     25

sunshine days#          10       15      5

I want to have report can display like below even though my SQL query /* select count(rain_days), count(sunshine_days) from weather

      where quarter='2' */
returns null

quarter                 qtr1    qtr2    qtr3    qtr4


rain days #             20       0       15     25

sunshine days#          10       0       15      5

Thanks.
