When I run a query that returns null and non-null values for a field, each
row that contains a null field is overwritten with the previous non-null
value for that field.

Example:

sqsh 1.7, compiled on Red Hat Linux 6.1, talking to MS SQL 7.0.

When I query address1 and address2 fields, address2 returns null until it
hits a row that contains a non-null value. Thereafter, it returns the
previous non-null value.

1> select addr_line_1, addr_line_2 from dOffender_Ed_Site where county='El
Paso'
2> go
addr_line_1 addr_line_2

Any suggestions are greatly appreicated.

BTW - the snapshot seems much more stable than 0.5 - thanks for the help in
getting that compiled.
