Check to see if object instance exists

[Larry]

Thanks in advance.
what is the C# equivalent of the VB.net IsNothing(object) function?
just trying to check to see if an object instance already exists.
does someone have an example?

Well, if what you mean is that you want to see if the value of a
variable refers to an object or not, you want:

if (x==null)

It's quite easy: you just compare to "null"

object someobject;
someobject = someMethod();
if (someobject == null)
{
// if it's null, then what?
}

Does that solve your problems?
