It could be that you are using a control that does its own sorting or just doesn’t use the order of the rows that it got, but the queries should return the rows with null values being the last. The code bellow has a small demo that shows it (you should run it from SQL Server management studio).
declare @DemoTbl table (i int identity(1,1), ch char(1))
insert into @DemoTbl (ch)
select 'b'
union all select null
union all select 'a'
union all select null
union all select 'c'
union all select 'd'
select *
from @DemoTbl
order by case when ch is null then 1 else 0 end, ch
select *
from @DemoTbl
order by ISNULL(ch,'zzzz'), ch
