SQL Server: Update all NULL Columns with ZERO (0)

This article is half-done without your Comment! *** Please share your thoughts via Comment ***

In this post, I am sharing a T-SQL Script for updating all NULL record columns by Zero in the SQL Server.

Recently, I executed this script on few measurement related tables where I updated all NULL data with Zero. Most of those tables, I am using for our operational mathematical operation so I put ZERO.

Check the below script:

Create a table with sample data:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
13
CREATE TABLE tbl_TestNulls
(
Code1 INT
,Code2 INT
,Code3 INT
)
GO
 
INSERT INTO tbl_TestNulls
VALUES
(1,NULL,NULL),(NULL,2,NULL),(3,NULL,4)
,(NULL,NULL,NULL),(5,6,NULL),(NULL,NULL,7)
GO

Solution:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
13
14
15
declare @tableName varchar(50)
declare @sql nvarchar(max)
set @sql = ''
set @tableName = 'tbl_TestNulls'
 
SELECT @sql = @sql + 'update ' + @tableName + ' set ' +
QUOTENAME(t.[name]) + '=0 where ' + QUOTENAME(t.[name]) + ' is null; '
from (SELECT [name] FROM syscolumns
where id =
(select id
from sysobjects
where type = 'U'
and [NAME] = @tableName)) as t
 
execute sp_executesql @sql

Result:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
select *from tbl_TestNulls
 
Code1 Code2 Code3
----------- ----------- -----------
