I know its late on Friday, but this is really got me stumped.
 
I have data that looks like a null (-0-) but does not act like a null.
 
In some of my fields the null appears and when I set null to a blank the field is blank (works correctly).  But, in other fields the field has a -0- that does not act as a null.  It left justifies itself and is recognizable as a null.
 
The only difference is that the data with the funny null came from a laptop computer and the data was later appended to the master table.  Both were entered into a form.
 
Am I going crazy??
