NULL is a display setting, and as such cannot be set to NULL

The best you can do is
SET NULL ' '
Which is a single space.

It does not affect data in a table that is null, it will still be null.
What exactly are you trying to do?

Subject: [RBASE-L] - How do I make NULL truly NULL?

I imagine there's a simple way to do this but I can't manage to figure out how.

I try to use R> SET NULL ''  and it does nothing, NULL keeps whatever value it 
previously had stored, in my case that is -0- which I believe is the default.  
I want NULL to be void of any and all data, both visually and logically, not 
represented by some text I define.
