How check if Request.QueryString is not empty

I have my own HandleErrorAttribute, which reads data from Exception and HttpContext, insert them into template and send an e-mail to administrator. It usually works fine, but it some cases it breaks, when trying to check if QueryString is not empty.

var requestParams = "";
if (context.Request.QueryString != null && context.Request.QueryString.Keys.Count > 0)
{
    foreach (String key in context.Request.QueryString.Keys)
    {
        requestParams += key + ": " + context.Request.QueryString[key] + "<br />";
    }
}
else
{
    requestParams = "[ no query string data ]";
}

It breaks when checking condition (NullReferenceException), even if I can see in debug, that QueryString is not null and the Keys.Count is equal to 0.

What am I missing here? How to do a proper check for an empty QueryString?

You can determine if there are any values in the QueryString by checking its count:

Request.QueryString.Count > 0;

It is sufficient.
