Hi Chuck,

If you are using MS SQL Server the easiest way to take care of this situation 
is to use the ISNULL function:

update mc-roadsegs
Set RFROMHN = ISNULL(RFROMHN,'')

Other implementations of SQL should have similar functions.

Subject: [Qgis-user] SQL to update table
 


I am trying to eliminate the text "NULL" from a table.  I have imported a set 
of Tiger road data and in some of the columns that I need to display the data 
itr has "NULL" in the field.  If it is Null I would really like that NOT to 
show up in the labeling on the map.

I have tried some standard SQL update queries but they didn't work.  

I tried the following from the QSpatialite form that appears from within QGIS. 
Example:
update "mc-roadsegs" Set "RFROMHN" = "" Where "RFROMHN" = "NULL";

I also tried to construct a query from within the query builf=der at the top of 
the Attribute table in Edit mode.

I really need to remove these unwanted valued.  It has been a while since I 
used SQL on a routine basis so I am a bit rusty.  

Any help will be much appreciated!

Thanks

Chuck
