hi all,

I got the problem that the if-statement doesn't work. After the first code line the variable contains the value "(null)", because the user who picked the contact from his iphone address book doesn't set the country key for this contact, so far so good.

but if I check the variable, it won't be true, but the value is certainly "(null)"... does someone have an idea?

 NSString *country = [NSString [the dict objectForKey:(NSString *)kABPersonAddressCountryKey]];

 if(country == @"(null)")
 {
      country = @"";
 }

thanks in advance
sean
