I can replicate Hammer's issue with varchar columns, however they only disappear entirely when every value in the column is NULL. If any row has data, it appears and is counted properly, but counting the NULLs would be a fantastic addition.

I would also like to report similar behaviour for uniqueidentifier, image, varbinary and binary data types, however in this case it doesn't matter if these are NULL or not, they will never show up in the Results Grid Aggregates. It would be nice it they did :)

Thanks
