Lotusscript function ArrayGetIndex gives error when checking the result

Hi

I am using the lotusscript function ArrayGetIndex.

This method can return a long or Null. I am trying to use the result in a if then else statement to find out what the result is of this method.

i use the following:

Dim yu as variant

yu = ArrayGetIndex(doc.ProdCodes,prod,0))

if Not yu is Nothing then

… some code…

else

… some code…

end if

when ever yu is not Null the code returns an error when getting to the if ststement.

How can I safely check the result of this method without getting into the errorhandler?

Regards

Use

Not isNull(yu)

Yu will be NULL if prod is not in doc.ProdCodes

You check for Null with Isnull:

If Isnull(variantVariableHere) Then

Nothing is not the same thing as Null. Nothing is an object variable without a reference. Null is a special value that a Variant can contain. (And Empty is another.)
