[RESOLVED] [2008] Checking byte arrays

I was just wondering what the best way to check if a byte array has anything in it. If it hasn't been used yet then I get the message that it's not set to a instance so I was thinking of using 'try' but that seems really bad. Is there a better way?

Thanks

How are you creating the array in the first place?

(And error trapping is never bad. :) )

Sorry I was just explaining myself and figured it out. Sorry for wasting your time. Thanks though!

Don't go away without posting your solution.

It could help someone else with the same or similiar situation.

Thanks. :)

Ok my code looked something this this (This was of course simplified):

Code:

---


dim a() as byte

doFuctionPassA ( byref a ) ' pseudo code here showing the varible getting passed

'since I'm not sure it was assigned anything yet I needed to check.
'the way I figured out was this

if a is nothing then

  'is nothing true

else

  'is nothing false

end if
