Hi All:

I'm JOINing two tables on a LEFT OUTER JOIN. So, some of the fields on the right have nulls if the join fails.

I then get an error when I try to perform a SELECT SUM(foo) foo2. The error is 'Error 1581 Field foo2 does not accept null values'.

Note that I am working on VFP5! It's an SBT app from 100 years ago.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Yossi
