return null;

Hi Kirshna,

If you are using the retrievemultiple then

use

if(ecAccount.Entities.Count == 0)

if you are using retrieve then

use

if (ecAccount == null )

Thanks

Hi Krishna,

Usually you use it other way around and then put your logicin else reason i.e.

If(ecAccount != null && ecAccount.Entities.Count > 0)

{

/// Logic on the returned records

}

else

{

// Display error message or return null error

return null;

}

Hope this helps.
