My bad. That was kind of poorly written. I meant:
<%# isThereComments(Convert.IsDBNull(Container.DataItem("comments")),
Container.DataItem("comments")) %>
</strong>
</td>
</tr>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>
</table>
Public Function isThereComments(ByVal isNull As Boolean, ByVal strValue as
String) As String
Return IIf(isNull, "<br>", strValue & "<br>")
End Function
