Null values on crosstab query

On a crosstab query, I often produce reports that show Counts of
values. the problem that I have is that where there are no counts, no
values are returned i.e. there are blank cells.

Is there an easy way in which to automatically replace these null
values with a zero?

Many thanks.

set the control source to =nz([FieldName],0)

But why?. Most reports I have seen based on crosstab look better with blanks
instead of 0 plus you can tell which have values that happen to sum to 0.

Set the Default Value for the field in the table to 0

The crosstab query (qryPromoFilm_NetCM_Crosstab) uses another query (qryPromo_NetCM) as its source. The crosstab is used to show revenue spread out through the twelve months. I need the months with null values to have a "0" value. This is the SQL for the crosstab...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
