If the situation is for a singular field, I have done a Case statement and applied whatever value I wanted to indicate a NULL
(case when table.field IS NULL
Then "NULL"
Else table.field
End case) as field_name
Thanks,
Steve

Subject: Run SQL Scripts and saving NULL to Excel
CAUTION: This message originated externally, please use caution when clicking on links or opening attachments!
I tried Google and the IBM site but couldn't find an answer.
I run a query that results in NULL values. When I try to save the results
to a spreadsheet (using Save As on the context menu) the columns that
contained NULLs in the results show as blanks in the Excel spreadsheet.
I've tried changing the values for nulls in Edit->Preferences->Results Tab
to NULL, (NULL), <NULL> but these appear to only change what is displayed
on the results pane.
Does anyone know what needs to be changed so that when a NULL is
encountered in the results and then I save the results to Excel the NULL is
preserved (or at least not blank).
Any advise would be appreciated,
Thanks,
Rob
