As to the hyphen for NULL, I believe it is not changeable - that is
why I often use the following

values(null_capable_column, ' ')

This uses the value of the column if it is not NULL and a blank when
it is - of course, use a zero if column is numeric.



Thanks again Vern!  That's exactly what I would use in that scenario.
Clarification for the archives:  It is "value" without the 's'.
