[RESOLVED] C# to vb translation of != null

Hi

I'm trying to translate a bit of text:

Code:

---

if (connection_string_read_from_web.config != null)
(.....create a dataset.....)
return null;

---

This tests to see if there's a string in the variable (connection string) and if not, it returns null.

How do I return 'null' in vb? Would I return DBNull.value?

Hi there,

Code:

---

If whateveryouaretesting IsNot Nothing Then
' Do something
End If

---

A big thanks! Nothing is exactly what I needed.

Changed the function to: return nothing

Now the Gridview's EmptyDataText displays just fine if there's a problem in the Try Catch. :)
