I am getting a {NULL} where I know there is text. Someone once showed me how to rerun the query to remove the {NULL} and return the text, but I have forgotten how. Can anyone tell me how to do that?
I’m sorry but I’m afraid I don’t understand your question. Can you please provide more information?
Thank you,
Igor.
Good Afternoon Mr. Manokhin
I know in the database that the below report was run against has data in the fields DOM_ASFND_NTS and DOM_ACT_WORK_PERF for line item 59102886414. I have experienced this in the past where {NULL} was returned for data I knew was in the database and a friend who had more experience with TOAD than I did, told me how to change this null to the data. I don’t remember what it was that he had me do and he’s now retired so I can’t ask him.

What is the data type of data are you expecting to see?
What is the data type of the fields DOM_ASFND_NTS and DOM_ACT_WORK_PERF?
I am guessing, but try casting those fields as Varchar(Max). Cast(DOM_ASFND_NTS as varchar(Max)).
A large text field, maybe 2 or 3 paragraphs at times.

Try the Cast function:
Select Cast(DOM_ASFND_NTS as varchar(Max)) as ASFND_NTS
If that does not work take a look at this link:
