Datatable Field is empty

Hello all,

I want to have an if condition which checks if the current row of a specific column is empty.

I have tried it with: CurrentRow(“ColumnName”)=Nothing

and
CurrentRow(“ColumnName”)=“”

But it wont work.

Any other ideas?

@VLC,

Use this expression to check if the field is empty or not

Convert.IsDBNull(CurrentRow(“ColumnName”)) OrElse String.IsNullOrEmpty(CurrentRow(“ColumnName”).ToString)

If this return true, it means the field is empty.

@VLC

multiple ways and using trim might help in few cases

currentRow("ColumnName") Is Nothing OrElse currentRow("ColumnName").ToString Is DBNull.Value OrElse String.IsNullOrEmpty(currentRow("ColumnName")>ToString.Trim)

cheers

Hi @VLC

Use this condition:
String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(CurrentRow(“ColumnName”).ToString)
It’ll check for both Nothing and empty values.

If you found helpful please mark as a solution. Thanks

Most likely the issue was with my write cell activity where I gave a wrong index so not all empty cell where filled but some which where not empty where filled. But I think all your solutions work
