Select ISNULL(MAX(Column),'0') from Table Where ur condition

Select ISNULL(MAX(serial_no),0) from temp_mr

error : Wrong number of arguments used with function in query expression 'ISNULL(MAX(serial_no),0)'.

Check what parameters it accepts and pass accordingly..

I don't know if COALESCE is available under Access (but it is under SQL). It takes a variable number of arguments and returns the first value that is non NULL. If you call it like COALESCE(MAX(Column),0) it may give you what you want (again, assuming it is supported under Access).
