Point group with "nothing" as the criteria?

I have dozens of points with no description whatsoever.  Similar to how I might use a description of "curb" or "ground" or "tc*"to include in a point group, can I specify something where 'no description' is the criteria?

I think you'll either have to include them in a group by point number, or create a group that includes all points and then exclude all of the descriptions of the points with descriptions. It might be easier to give them descritpions and re-import them.

Create a point group which includes all points, but also excludes points where the Raw Description <> NULL.

 

The tilde wildcard (looks like ~) in a description filter is equivalent to a NOT EQUAL TO function.  In this case you turn on the Include All Points checkbox and also turn on the Exclude with raw descriptions matching ~

The Query Builder should look like this when you're done.
