Stephen, I should have checked. Check "exists" in the dictionary for the rev syntax. Not quite as straightforward or easy as with HC.
Sorry,

Stephen,

Without even checking, since it's the way it would be done in HC, just use:

if tUsername is empty then ....

if tUsername exists then ...

You were already there. Didn't you check these out in the messagebox?

Really two questions:

How do I check if a variable is empty? Sort of like;

If !empty(tUsername)
  // process here
Endif

Empty() is a Foxpro function that pops if what you are checking is empty. I can’t seem to find it’s equivalent in revolution. Am I approaching this the
wrong way? And can I check fields the same way?

I suppose I could create an empty variable and just compare the 2? But is
there an easier way?

Next question; checking the existence of a variable? Now I know I can turn on Strict Compilation (and I have) but I’d rather have the assurance of checking to see if a variable exist? Is this a non-issue in Revolution?

Thanks
