Convert.IsDBNull(Object) Method

Definition

Returns an indication whether the specified object is of type DBNull.

public:
 static bool IsDBNull(System::Object ^ value);
public static bool IsDBNull (object? value);
public static bool IsDBNull (object value);
static member IsDBNull : obj -> bool
Public Shared Function IsDBNull (value As Object) As Boolean

Parameters

value
Object

An object.

Returns

true if value is of type DBNull; otherwise, false.

Examples

The following example uses a SqlDataReader object to retrieve survey data from a database. It assigns each row's field values to an array, and then passes each array element to the IsDBNull method. If the method returns true, the example assigns the string "NA" to the array element. The array is then added to the Rows collection of a System.Windows.Forms.DataGridView control.

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);
DBNull.Value.Equals value
Return DBNull.Value.Equals(value)

Note

DBNull.Value is used to indicate a value that is missing. It is not equivalent to null or to String.Empty. Therefore, code such as Convert.IsDBNull(null) in C# or Convert.IsDBNull(Nothing) in Visual Basic returnsfalse.
