How to use isNull

From what I understand, Progress doesn't really understand a Null value (I assume you are on Progress). In the UI customization, I either user the LEN function or ="" to determine if a field is empty. If you are programming in Progress (as in a BPM), then you can use = ?. The ? is the Progress unknown value.

What development environment are you using? Visual Studio? Crystal? Vantage
VB Forms? Vantage 8.X customization? Where are you trying to test for NULL?
