Not only is it a "do not" condition, but the expression itself is "the wrong way round" to my simple straight forward type of mind... I always have to read it out loud (and twice for that matter...): >> >COND=(9,LT). This step is executing. Looking at all of the Return Codes "If 9 is less than the return code of any of the previous steps, then do not run this one." So, if, as you say all return codes are 0 except for one that is 4, well, then 9 is not less than any of them, so the condition is not met and the step runs.
