Description

Resolution:
- isblank() will return true if the string is null or has zero characters in it.
- If the string that you pass into isblank() has a space in it, for example " ", then isblank() will return false.  In this case, you should use an istrim() before calling isblank() to remove blank spaces
- isnull(x) returns true when x is null.
