If you want a link column for values other than 0 and a blank for those with 0 then the best way to do this is to use a case or a decode to return a LINK image or text to a hidden column; I usually return the Edit icon only. You can then use the 'column link' region on a different column to create a link in the usual way and set the Link Text to the hidden column (e.g. #EDIT# in the example below). If you have set the target page to require a Checksum this will then be added without having to code it into your sql. E.g.
SELECT some_columns, 
  CASE WHEN numcol != 0 THEN '<img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#e2.gif" alt="">'
  ELSE null
  END "EDIT"
FROM your_tableIf you want the same column value, but those of 0 to not have a link and those other than 0 to have a link then you need to code the link into your sql. e.g.
SELECT some_columns, 
  DECODE (numcol,0,numcol,'<a href="f?p=&APP_ID.:11:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.:11::">'||numcol||'</a>') "EDIT"
FROM your_table# = your URL e.g f?p=&APP_ID.:11:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.:11::
If you require a checksum on the link you need to add the apex_util.prepare_url function to the URL.
