How do i assign a null value to a cell in Microsoft Excel?
All,
I need to use DSUM functions with the criteria values to be generated by Formulae. In this process I need some of the fields in the criteria to be Null so that DSUM picks up all possible values for these fields. Since these criteria fields are generated by formulae, I need to be able to assign a Null value using a formula. However I am unable to do it. I tried different ways (trying a NA() in the IF formula, creating a space and trimming it etc.) I really appreicate if someone can help me with this. If you need more clarifications regarding this query, ping me @ Thanks a lot in advance |

How do i assign a null value to a cell in Microsoft Excel?
Null is a concept that Excel hasn't incorporated. If you have a formula in a
cell, by definition that cell cannot be blank or have a NULL value. Since you understand NULL, it seems you know something of databases. You will save yourself some heartache by doing database oriented analysis in Access or, if you don't have Access, downloading SQL Server Express "vkrishna_anne" wrote: All, I need to use DSUM functions with the criteria values to be generated by Formulae.
