'Integer?' is just another way to express 'Nullable(Of Integer)'. The
statement above converts 'Company_ID' to a nullable integer. The syntax
'<type>?' is supported by VB since VB 2008.

'Integer?' is just another way to express 'Nullable(Of Integer)'.

A /new/ Type Declaration Character after all these years?

Will Wonders never cease?

Will Our Friend in Redmond /ever/ make their minds up where they're
trying to go with this language (today or any other day)? ;-)
