Isma,

Your code is strange.
  
COMPUTE FIELD/D12.2 = IF FIELD EQ '' THEN '--' ELSE FIELD ;

What is the original format of FIELD? Alpha? Numeric?

Try this code -
TABLE FILE EXPENSES
SUM COMPUTE FIELD/A12 = IF FIELD EQ 0 THEN '--' ELSE FPRINT(FIELD, 'D12.2', 'A12') ;
BY NAME
END

Another option, if it fits in with your report is to use MISSING.

e.g.
SET NODATA = '--'
TABLE FILE EXPENSES
SUM COMPUTE FIELD/D12.2 MISSING ON = IF FIELD EQ 0 THEN MISSING ELSE FIELD) ;
BY NAME
END
