testing for null in Filter property

RP
Is it possible to test a string column for null in the filter property of a
RecordSet object?

rs.filter = "display = '' "?

This doesn't return any rows.

Thanks
Rich

Use
rs.filter = "display is null"

You should probably be filtering these records in your query ...

Got it. Thanks. I decided to do it in the query instead. Much better
performance anticipated.

Cheers
