ASP.Net C# Extension Method to compare string values (case insensitive)

A simple extension method to compare string values without having to worry about case sensitivity.

Code:

 public static bool IsEqual(this string Value, string CompareValue)  
 {  
      bool ReturnValue = false;  
   
      if (Value != null && CompareValue != null)  
      {  
           ReturnValue = string.Compare(Value.Trim(), CompareValue.Trim(), StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) == 0;  
      }  
   
      return ReturnValue;  
 }  

Example usage:

 if (Users.Any(x => x.FirstName.IsEqual(FirstName) && x.LastName.IsEqual(LastName)))  
 {  
      // code  
 }
