I think the solution of this issue can be some how easier than we imagine  I have simply used the expression Not Null and it worked fine  Browser  quot micclass quot   Page  quot micclass quot   WebElement  quot Test quot   CheckProperty  quot innertext quot   Not Null

I am not sure if this is what you are looking for  if var lt  gt    then            dosomething   or  if isempty thisworkbook sheets  sheet1   range  a1   value   false then   the ISEMPTY function can be used as well

Use Not IsEmpty     For example   Sub DoStuffIfNotEmpty       If Not IsEmpty ActiveCell Value  Then         MsgBox  I m not empty       End If End Sub

Why not just use the built-in Format   function   Dim vTest As Variant vTest   Empty   or vTest   null or vTest       If Format vTest    vbNullString Then     doSomethingWhenEmpty    Else    doSomethingElse    End If   Format   will catch empty variants as well as null ones and transforms them in strings  I use it for things like null empty validations and to check if an item has been selected in a combobox

It depends on what you want to test      for a string  you can use If strName   vbNullString or IF strName      or Len strName    0  last one being supposedly faster  for an object  you can use If myObject is Nothing for a recordset field  you could use If isnull rs myField  for an Excel cell  you could use If range  B3        or IsEmpty myRange    Extended discussion available here  for Access  but most of it works for Excel as well

Alexphi s suggestion is good  You can also hard code this by first creating a variable as a Variant and then assigning it to Empty  Then do an if then with to possibly fill it  If it gets filled  it s not empty  if it doesn t  it remains empty  You check this then with IsEmpty   Sub TestforEmpty        Dim dt As Variant     dt   Empty      Dim today As Date     today   Date     If today   Date Then         dt   today     End If      If IsEmpty dt  Then         MsgBox  It not is today      Else         MsgBox  It is today      End If  End Sub

Try this   If Len vValue  amp  vbNullString   gt  0 Then     we have a non-Null and non-empty String value   doSomething   Else     We have a Null or empty string value   doSomethingElse   End If
