How do I replace missing values with another character in a Report

[CAM100z]

I want to show missing values in a report as a dash instead of a blank. How
do I do this?

Nz([YourFieldName],"-")

Or you can use the format property of the control(s) to specify that it show
a dash or whatever other character you want.

For text, set the format to
@;-

For numbers, set the format to
#,##0;-#,##0;0;-

If by "missing" you mean Null, then use a custom format:

For numeric values, use the fourth format setting. E.g.
$#,##0.00;($#,##0.00);;"-"
For a text value:
@;"-"
