No, you can't do that (althought it would be nice).

The only thing I can think of ATM is formatting the number so that zero
comes out as a space character.

Try this in your label expression:
  Format$(MyFieldName, " ")


If the leading space in front of valid numbers is still a drama for you,
then try this (replace i with your field name):

  Right$(format$(i," ") , len(format$(i, " "))-1)


It's a bit of a dragon, but will do the trick.

Subject: [MI-L] Labelling numeric fields

Afternoon all

I have a large table with a numeric field I need to label BUT it contains
many zero values.  I do not wish to label the zeroes.  Can you use an
expression in the label tool such as:

If FIELD>0 Then FIELD

If this does not work does anyone have any other work around?

Cheers

Tony
