I have a table in which I want to create query - in "select by attribute" window- about &amp;lt;NULL&amp;gt; values, So my query is:&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;SELECT * from Table_name where&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;[Field_name] IS NULL&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;but no record is selected even though the table contain lots of &amp;lt;NULL&amp;gt; values (see attached image)&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;What could be the problem?&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
