IsNull

[Bryan]

I am having trouble using the IsNull() function in VB.net. Here the line of code:

 

If Not IsNull(TextBox1.Text) Then

End If

 

it tells me that IsNull is not declared, do I have to use an inherits system.??? to be able to use the IsNull() function?

If you are checking if the textbox is empty you can check for an empty string

if TextBox1.Text <> String.Empty Then

End IF

 

If you are checking if a variable is null the nunder vb check for nothing

dim o as object
if o is nothing then

end if

If Not TextBox1.Text IS system.dbnull.value Then

End If

yes, but what about the IsNull function. I'd like to use that, i've used it before, but it's been a while and I'd like to know how to use it.

IIRC IsNull is no longer supported in VB.Net - the nearest equivalent is DbNull as georgepatotk suggested in the post above.
