'Declaration
Public Shared Function IsDBNull ( _

) As Boolean
public static bool IsDBNull(
    Object value
)

Parameters

Return Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if value is of type DBNull; otherwise, false.

Remarks

The IsDBNull method tests whether the value parameter is equal to DBNull.Value. It is equivalent to the following code:

Return DBNull.Value.Equals(value)
return DBNull.Value.Equals(value);
NoteNote:

DBNull.Value is used to indicate a value that is missing. It is not equivalent to nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) or to String.Empty.
