I have a class that I created in vbscript that I use to get results from the database. Sometimes I return no results or an empty object. How do I check that object to make sure it isn't empty? I have tried isnull and also seen if it = "" but neither work. Another key is they are all arrays. I tried seeing if the ubound of the array > 0 or 1 but no luck there I get an error for ubound on it.

I know I could just trap the error and move on but that seems to be the easy way out. Any other ideas?
 
other option is to check if the Len() is zero...

oops...you mentioned that they are arrays...then this should work...

if UBound(myarray)=-1 then
'array is empty
else
'array has atleast one element
end if

I used isempty and it works great. That was bone headed of me. I have done that before.

Thank you
