Negation

I'm really sorry if this is a very stupid question, but I'm frustrated by now.
Is it possible to negate a condition in brightscript?

I've tried these without any luck:
if(not var)
if(+var)
if(-var)
if(!var)


Is there a way to do this?
It is really frustrating having to use the following just because I want to negate the condition:
if(foo)
(empty)
else
something
end if
