Sure, here are a few ways to check if a model property is null in a [Razor](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12002/asp-dot-net-mvc5-razor-with-jquery) [view](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/84701/layoffs-in-google-india-2023-view):

**Using the** `if` **statement:**

Razor CSHTML

```plaintext
if (Model.Property != null)
{
    // Do something with the property
}
else
{
    // The property is null
}
```

**Using the** `is` **operator:**

Razor CSHTML

```plaintext
if (Model.Property is string)
{
    // The property is a string
}
else
{
    // The property is null or not a string
}
```

**Using the** `IsNullOrEmpty` **method:**

Razor CSHTML

```plaintext
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(Model.Property))
{
    // The property is null or empty
}
else
{
    // The property is not null or empty
}
```

Which method you use will depend on your specific needs. For example, if you only need to check if the property is null, then the `if` statement or the `is` operator will suffice. However, if you also need to check if the property is empty, then you should use the `IsNullOrEmpty` method.

Here is an example of how to use the `IsNullOrEmpty` method to check if a model property is null or empty:

Razor CSHTML

```plaintext
@if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(Model.Name))
{
    // The name property is null or empty
}
else
{
    // The name property is not null or empty
}
```

Try this \

\

```
<div id="divLoading">       @if (Model != null && !String.IsNullOrEmpty(Model.Record)){    <label for="record">add record</label>}else{     <label for="remove">remove</label>}     </div>
```

hope it helps you\
