Changing null values to 1's upon script load

[joshrussin]

Hello all,

I have been having some trouble counting items that have been picked when a value is null. It was working until these new updates came around, but I am trying to change the value from null to 1 upon script load. Here is what i am trying so far in the script. The output is still the same. Any ideas to figure this out? In set expression, I tried using the -= '' way, but it is not working either.

SCRIPT:

"Exception Code" AS "Exception Code bidf",

if("Exception Code" = '', 1,"Exception Code") as "Exception Code bidf testing",

"Warehouse Process Cat. Desc." AS "Warehouse Process Cat. Desc bidf",

OUTPUT:

**"EXCEPTION CODE" is actually "Exception Code bidf"

test for null using IsNull(), '' is empty which is not the same....
