Boolean

Determines whether data has been entered.

Boolean	Description
True	The contents of the control are empty. The user has not entered any data.
False	The contents of the control are not empty.

Comments

The Empty property determines whether data has been entered.

The AllowEmpty property can be used to enable optional data input.

If the DefaultText property is used, the control contents are automatically updated with string defined by the DefaultText property. In that case, the control is no longer considered empty and the Empty property will return False.
