Checking for A Blank String

Goran,

Thanks for the lesson,

Goran,

You are consequently using legacy by the time standarized C code in this
newsgroup and tell than that it is Net.

By that reasoning it's not even C code, and most C code isn't C code at
all. C was not the first programming language.

Also by that reasoning, the LEN function is not a VB function at all, it's
a BASIC function.

Do you wish to continue down that path of that reasoning?

It is in the namespace Net. That does not mean that solely that is Net
code.

Of course it is. Would it not be .NET code becase there are other
languages that uses similar syntax?

Every part of code in the different frameworks is Net. Including the ones
in the Visual Basic Namespaces and the other newer ones comming.

Yes, the VB6-style functions in the Microsoft.VisualBasic library is also
.NET. They are not, however, part of the System namespace.

Can you stop arguing about single words, and perhaps focus on the issue?

In my opinion there is better code, not the legacy C as well not the
legacy VBclassics, altough I will never tell anybody not to use it, there
can be endless reasons for that.

What code? What are you talking about?

For those who want to know what Goran wrote in a more correct way.

Göran,

Not at all. A blank string is the same as an empty string.

" " can be seen as a "blank" string (consisting of blanks only) which is
not empty.
