    Used to indicate an uninitialized variable value. A variable value is uninitialized when it is first created and no value is assigned to it, or when a variable value is explicitly set to empty.

    Example:
    Dim x 'the variable x is uninitialized!
    x="ff" 'the variable x is NOT uninitialized anymore
    x=Empty 'the variable x is uninitialized!

    Note: This is not the same as Null!!
    IsEmpty

    Used to test if a variable is uninitialized.

    Example: If (IsEmpty(x)) 'is x uninitialized?
    Nothing Used to indicate an uninitialized object value, or to disassociate an object variable from an object to release system resources.

    Example: Set myObject=Nothing
    Is Nothing Used to test if a value is an initialized object.

    Example: If (myObject Is Nothing) 'is it unset?

    Note: If you compare a value to Nothing, you will not get the right result! Example: If (myObject = Nothing) 'always false!
    Null Used to indicate that a variable contains no valid data.

    One way to think of Null is that someone has explicitly set the value to "invalid", unlike Empty where the value is "not set".

    Note: This is not the same as Empty or Nothing!!

    Example: x=Null 'x contains no valid data
    IsNull Used to test if a value contains invalid data.

    Example: if (IsNull(x)) 'is x invalid?
    True Used to indicate a Boolean condition that is correct (True has a value of -1)
    False Used to indicate a Boolean condition that is not correct (False has a value of 0)


    Example (IE Only)
    <html>
    <body>

    <script type="text/vbscript">
    document.write("This is my first VBScript!")
    </script>

    </body>
    </html>
