Is there a conditional ternary operator in VB.NET?

C# has a shortcut like this:

cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@p2", ((supplierID > 0) ? (object)supplierID : DBNull.Value)));

Just curious if VB .Net has something like that too?

cmd.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@p2", (If((supplierID > 0), DirectCast(supplierID, Object), DBNull.Value))))

You are describing a "ternary operator"

Yes, it's a ternary operator, but it's actually called the IF operator. blogs.msdn.com/b/vbteam/archive/2008/03/11/…
