Hi,
I want to set a condition that checks if a text field contains data. But there is no "contains data" check. What's the workaround to this?
Thanks
@SeanHenderson to check for contains data you could try is not equal to an expression of null

That did it, thank you. I didn't realize there was a null expression.
The "expression of null" works fantastic for object variables and values. Great tip! However, if it is a string field, the comparison value might need to be blank/empty instead of "expression of null" since the string field initializes to blank/empty/"".
@Chris I have string fields that I want to do this check for and I've entered "" and " ", and it's like the condition isn't even there. I see under Expression that I can find an "empty" but when I try to add it to the "Choose a value" field, it say "The expression is invalid". I would appreciate any help you can provide. Ty
Nevermind, I just left the right side of the equation blank and that's working.
