exists method for db column results? 1

[gagz]

I have two stored procedure that get very similar data from two different databases. One of them gets a field called address3, one only goes up to address2.

is there a way in vb.net to say something like:

if (Exists(row("address3&quot)) Then
'do something with it
end if

reason i ask is because I try to check that field (by doing if row(&quot;address3&quot <> &quot;&quot even when my second stored procedure doesn't return it and it tells me it doesn't below to the table specified.

Thanks in advance.

You're looking for the .Contains method of the .Columns property of the DataTable:

If DataTable.Columns.Contains(&quot;myColumnName&quot Then
'the column is there
Else
'the column isn't there
End If
