I am having a problem where i am trying to check if two label values are equal too null. One of the labels is null and the other contains a string value. The code i have seems to only check if one of the labels is empty and not the other.
heres the statement in question

if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(Lbl1.Text) || string.IsNullOrEmpty(Lbl2.Text))
            {
               messagebox.show("Boxes Empty");
            }
            else
            {
              messagebox.show("Boxes not empty");
            }

Can anyone see why it would not be hitting the else if Lbl2 has a value.

Thanks Inkey

Think about it. If Lbl1.Text is empty then the result is true, it doesn't matter what is in Lbl2.Text. If you want to check if *both* are empty, use and (&&).
