Empty <> Null

The following code:

: If rs("Fee") <> "" then

does *not* check for Null. It checks for a zero length string.
You can use COALESCE() or ISNULL() or similar in your SQL to return a value
in place of the NULL, or you can use VBScript's IsNull() function. That
said, you seem to be testing for zero length strings, not Null values.

Cheers
