how can i use the "null" attr. in a select order?
i.e. Select * From table

But he is not alone.

Just relax... sometimes there's no need to argue.

Does NULL not work? ie
SELECT * FROM `table` WHERE `field`=NULL

If not, then try using SELECT * FROM `table` WHERE `field`='NULL' or maybe even SELECT * FROM `table` WHERE `field`='' or as a last chance, SELECT * FROM `table` WHERE `field`=0
Other than that, no idea
If none of those have worked my suggestion (if this is essential) would be to add an extra field, named "IsNull", and manually keep track of whether the main field is null or not.

i didn't explain my problem properly
i want to use two select instructions:
select * from table1 union all select * from table2
a friend of mine told me that it won't work if those tables don't have the same number of columns... so he told me to use the null attr... but he didn't tell me where to put it...
O_o...

What about...

SELECT * FROM 'table' WHERE 'field'=''
