### Description

If this property is set to true, the [else instruction value](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/txtextcontrol/instruction/elseinstructionvalue-property/llms-full.txt) is applied by the specified action when the defined requirements of the `ConditionalInstruction.Conditions` array are not fulfilled. The default value is false, if no [else instruction value](https://docs.textcontrol.com/tx-text-control-dotnet-server/reference/txtextcontrol/instruction/elseinstructionvalue-property/llms-full.txt) was set by the instruction constructor. Otherwise true.

### Syntax

```csharp
public bool IsElseInstructionEnabled { get; set; }
```

```vbnet
Public Property IsElseInstructionEnabled As Boolean
```

### Examples

The following example builds a rule around an approval check box in a fillable form by using `Instruction.IsElseInstructionEnabled`.

```csharp
CheckFormField approvalField = new(false) { Name = "Approved" };
textControl.FormFields.Add(approvalField);
Instruction instruction = new(approvalField, Instruction.InstructionTypes.IsEnabled, true);

instruction.IsElseInstructionEnabled = true;
if (instruction.IsElseInstructionEnabled)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Instruction: Is Else Instruction Enabled is enabled.");
}
```

```vbnet
Dim approvalField As New CheckFormField(False) With { .Name = "Approved" }
textControl.FormFields.Add(approvalField)
Dim instruction As New Instruction(approvalField, Instruction.InstructionTypes.IsEnabled, True)

instruction.IsElseInstructionEnabled = True
If instruction.IsElseInstructionEnabled Then
    Console.WriteLine("Instruction: Is Else Instruction Enabled is enabled.")
End If
```
