I copy data from a SQL Server result set and paste it into an Excel spreadsheet. The NULL values need to appear as blanks in Excel, but the default behavior is to show the word, "NULL". For text fields, I can apply ISNULL([field],'') in the original query. But what about numeric fields? I don't want it to be 0, it needs to be blank. Is there a query based solution? I keep forgetting to do find and replace.
Copy data from SQL Server to Excel "NULL" instead of blank NUMBERS

This is more of a comment but do to low rep, i'll post as an answer. Excel will not show a blank by default for a number value when pasted into the worksheet. It will interpret (correctly) a blank data point as 0. Since you are willing to find and replace 0s with null values, it seems this is for presentation purposes. If that is the case, I'd suggest conditional formatting. Set when the cell's value = 0 make the text white. if you are applying any mathematics to this column, the effect of a null cell or a 0 cell are the same, thus no impact to formulas/functions.
