Michelle,

Using the integer fields fixed the issue.

Thanks I was using the LENGTH but with the character fields.

Thanks

Kyle

Yes. The LENGTH of the values should be set into integer fields and then
compared.

Subject: Comparing feild lengths

I have two temp fields that I have created some workflow to compare length between the two. First field is set by the user when they
type
in a value, the second field is the control (ie the first field must
be
 >= the second field).  Problem is that when the first field is double

digits (> 9) my qualifications are failing, stating the the first
field
is shorter than the control.  What could be causing this?

Ex:

ztemp1 = 12
ztemp2control = 8

I have an active link that fires stating that if ztemp1 <
ztemp2control
then a message is displayed telling the user that "ztemp1 needs to be
8
characters or greater".  This works fine until ztemp1 is double
digits.
ARS 6.3

Thanks

Kyle
