I wanted to know in which condition I should write the following line of code.I mean what is the utility of that.

(1) If myButton.Text="ON" Then myButton.Text="OFF" Else myButton.Text="ON"

(2) IF bIsON = True Then
       bIsON = False 
       myButton.Text="OFF"
    Else
       bIsON = True 
       myButton.Text="ON"
    End If
