Test several text boxes at once for any blanks - excel

Question

I want to check three different textboxes on a form (but not all) to see if any are left blank. Comparable to "If IsBlank," on the spreadsheet. From what I've read, it seems that IsEmpty can't be used this way? I've been playing with IsNull, but haven't found a proper syntax that would allow it to work. Surely there must be some simple, even standard, way of doing this? Maybe some other function I've never heard of?
(I know I can use If Txtbx1.value = "" Or If... (etc.)
—I'm looking for a shorter and more graceful way to do this.)
Thanks!

Answer 1

Consider using OR:
Sub dural()
If Txtbx1.Value = "" Or Txtbx2.Value = "" Or Txtbx3.Value = "" Then
MsgBox "at least one empty"
End If
End Sub

Match vs Array of Text Boxes feat. IsError, VarType and TypeName
All codes were in a user form code sheet and were run via command buttons on the user form where also the three text boxes were located.
In the first code, the result of Match is passed to the var (variant) variable and further evaluated. If there is at least one text box with no value ("" or vbNullString), var will return the position of the first found empty text box 1-based i.e. the first is 1, the second is 2 etc. unlike the Array which is 0-based i.e. the first element is 0, the second is 1 etc.
The second code is a presentation of the three choices that were studied in the first code.
The third code is a 'bad' code without variables you might be looking for.
Sub TextBoxFun()
Dim vntTB As Variant ' Text Box Array
Dim var As Variant ' Match Variant
Dim strTB As String ' Pass String
Dim lngTB As Long ' Pass Long
' Pass TextBoxes to Text Box Array.
vntTB = Array(TextBox1, TextBox2, TextBox3)
' Either:
var = Application.Match("", vntTB, 0)
' Or:
'var = Application.Match(vbNullString, vntTB, 0)
Debug.Print String(10, "'")
Debug.Print "IsError(var) = " & IsError(var) ' True
Debug.Print "VarType(var) = " & VarType(var) ' 10 or vbError
Debug.Print "TypeName(var) = " & TypeName(var) ' Error
Debug.Print String(10, "'")
' Line of Code / vbNullString Found ? >>> ' True False
Debug.Print var ' 1
' Depending on the first position of ' 2
' the found vbNullString or "". ' 3 Error 2042
lngTB = IsError(var): Debug.Print lngTB ' 0 -1
lngTB = VarType(var): Debug.Print lngTB ' 5 10
'lngTB = TypeName(var): Debug.Print lngTB ' Nope Nope
' TypeName returns always a string.
