    What else could it be. If it isnt Nul and its not a space.

    I made a formula to show my fields that are not Null or do not contain a space. But it is bringing up records that still appear NULL or contain a space. What other condition could exist in this field. If its not nul and its not a space what else could it be? Thank you

    How to compare prior month active customers with present
