    What the heck is the difference between EMPTY, NOTHING, and NULL? I just wanted to check MSDN what's the difference between Empty and Nothing, and all I found out is that there is also Null, which is not the same as Nothing. Thank you, VBScript.

      My take on this VB-rant: Empty == void == nothing Null == (unknown) ... VBS == "VB sucks" for those semi-colon deficient programmers ;) . Cheers, Simon "Sign up for a chance to be among the first to experience the wrath of the gods.", Microsoft's home page (24/06/2002)

        It's so that the VBians can type pretty much anything and still dont get any errors. /Magnus
