Many thanks to all who responded (it's funny how many responses I got before
I even saw my original message).
As I suspected, the way I was doing it was the preferred method. How about
a wish-list item?
Q: I want to label points in a table, but I don't want to label the ones
that have a value of zero.
Is there a way to specify a conditional expression for your labels?
A: #1. Query the positive values and add the query to the layout; label
that with N for a symbol style.
#2. Make a character column, update it with the values from orig.
column, then update the Zeros with blanks;
label objects from that column.
Thanks to (among others):
