Don't confuse "Value" with "Visual Representation".

Null is Null (unless EqNull is set ON/OFF, but this only affects calculations 
is expressions).

When you set Null to '-0-' , when you "see" it on screen or in report, the 
"value" of it is nothing or null.

If you don't want to "see" it, just set it to BLANK like

Set var vBlank = (Char(160))

Set Null .vBlank

and you won't "see" it.
