If ---- IS Not ""-----"

Hi can anyone help me out with this line? I don't know what I'm doing wrong. It's for vb.net.

If strProductName Is Not "EOF" Then

Thanks

er... I havn't done much .NET but I gues you are trying to compare 2 strings????

SO:

If strProductName <> "EOF" Then

would seem a bit more appropriate.

I dont have VBNET... :( *BUT*

I dont know if that would help, but what you are doing is comparing 2 string values and if the two string values are not identical, then *something happens*...

I asume that the productname has to be different from the string "EOF"...

I would use the following line in VB6... (OR EVEN QUICK BASIC ;))

VB Code:

If strProductName <> "EOF" Then

GOTA WRITE FASTER NEX TIME!
Grrrr :p

Just beet you to it! ;)

You could also use the Equals method on String

If s.Equals("EOF") Then
MessageBox.Show("same")
Else
MessageBox.Show("different")
End If
