Hi

Can you explain/or show how to create a table to have the columns default to blank space instead NULL when there is no value. and the datatypes of the various columns could be decimal, float, char etc.

Thanks

Justin,

You can use Transact SQL to add a constraint such as:

ALTER TABLE [dbo].[TableName] WITH NOCHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [DF_TableName_ColumnName] DEFAULT ('') FOR [ColumnName]

GO

I don't understand the second part of your question though. Numeric columns cannot be defaulted to blank.

Hope this helps,

Eric
