| I am getting the message "Warning: Null value is eliminated by an aggregate or other SET operation." when I run my query, but the query produces no nulls. Why am I getting this warning ? |

| It's just warning that they are being ignored by an aggregate function - sum, max etc.You can set the warnings off but better to avoid them if it's a problem.for a sum you can just use a coalescesum(coalesce(col,0))For max or min you can do a similar thing but need to be careful that your default doesn't turn out to be the result.For other aggregates make your own decision.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.DTS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |
