Hi,
There are lots of option.
In Frame Work Manager :
In query you write like this
1]Ex: Decode(column_name,' ','No-Data')
2]EX: case when WORKORDER.SITEID is null then 'No-Data'
else WORKORDER.SITEID end as SITEID


IN Report Studio also write same expression :
In query you write like this
1]Ex: Decode(column_name,' ','No-Data')
2]EX: case when WORKORDER.SITEID is null then 'No-Data'
else WORKORDER.SITEID end as SITEID

3]EX:
a) click on query item that you have draged from the layer.
b) click on LIST it was in the properties
c) then in the properties you will find NO DATA CONTENTS
make it as YES
d) drag TEXT ITEM from tool box properties and type your
MESSAGE
e) Run the report

4]EX:
a.select the query item in the list which contains null value.
b.if it is char data type then click the data format in
properties.
c.select the format type text,
d.In the missing value enter the text as "no data".
e.so that you will get the output when it contain null values.

That's it ....
