For Oracle, we have NVL to return another value for NULL values. What&amp;#39;s the function for the same purpose, by which we can use&amp;nbsp;for SQL server?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#ff00ff"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I&amp;#39;ve checked within SQL server, there&amp;#39;re records that should be returned for the selected &amp;quot;trade&amp;quot;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#ff00ff"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Inside the database, there are some records matching with the conditions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
