Picklist Validation rule not working

Hello,

I have a validation rule setup to check if a given picklist value is empty. I have tried following ways but the rule does not trigger:

#Type 1:
NOT(ISBLANK(TEXT(text_field))) 
&& 
ISBLANK(TEXT(picklist ))
&& 
(RecordType.Name = "name1" 
|| 
RecordType.Name = "name2" 
|| 
RecordType.Name = "name3" 
)

#Type 2:

AND(ISPICKVAL(Picklist , ""), NOT(ISBLANK(TEXT(Text_Field))),OR(RecordType.Name = "name1", RecordType.Name = "name2", RecordType.Name = "name3" ))

Please let me know why this doesn't work. Thanks a lot

Hi Himanshu,

You can check picklist field is empty by using below code :
IF(ISPICKVAL( Test__c, '') , true, false)

Here Test__c is picklist field.

Thanks,
