Hi,

Use 'CHAR' field instead of Numeric. It will be easy to handle such cases. with Numeric field it is not possible to display blank field.

When you build the FieldCatalog for that particular field pass NO_ZERO = 'X', it should solve the problem even if you continue to use the numeric type.

If the field is coming from your table, then make the field "Initial" checked in Se11..

goto se11

give your table name

click change

select the "initial" checkbox for that field...

Save & activate...
