Hi,

While adding a values in a sql query will the null values are considered or will it be omitted?

Eg.

col1 col2
----- ------
1 1
1 2
1
1 3
1 4

if we try adding the col2 using group by col1 will the null value of col2 will be considered?

Please advice...

Thanks in advance...

Thanks,

Hi,

It will give data type or length error. it will never do like this.

Atleast zero should be present in that. icon_razz.gif
