You can use 00:00 when you do not have a value and have the report change it to something else such as "N.A."

That works well. However, sometimes the time is unknown and requires a blank entry, a NULL (-0-) would be fine but Rbase will allow nothing but time values in a time field. Even forcing a -0- into the field doesn't work, Rbase converts it to 00:00 or 12:00 AM depending on the time format. This time field prints on my report so I can't have any value when that value is unknown. I will now proceed with changing the two time fields in the table to TEXT in order to circumvent this but I thought I would submit it to the list first and see if anyone can see around this corner. ~Claudine :) ================================================ TO SEE MESSAGE POSTING GUIDELINES: Send a plain text email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the message body, put just two words: INTRO rbase-l ================================================ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: send a plain text email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the message body, put just two words: UNSUBSCRIBE rbase-l ================================================ TO SEARCH ARCHIVES: http://www.mail-archive.com/rbase-l%40sonetmail.com/ ================================================ TO SEE MESSAGE POSTING GUIDELINES: Send a plain text email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the message body, put just two words: INTRO rbase-l ================================================ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: send a plain text email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the message body, put just two words: UNSUBSCRIBE rbase-l ================================================ TO SEARCH ARCHIVES: http://www.mail-archive.com/rbase-l%40sonetmail.com/
