Check if TextBox is empty and return MessageBox?

Question

I made this statement to check if TextBox is empty, but the MessageBox always shows up wether the TextBox is empty or not.

    private void NextButton_Click

Try this condition instead:

if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(MaterialTextBox.Text)) {
    // Message box
}

This will take care of some strings that only contain whitespace characters and you won't have to deal with string equality which can sometimes be tricky
