Todd,
There is a mapbasic function called StringCompare that returns 0 when two strings
are identical.
In your case the code might look something like this:
If StringCompare(String1, String2)<>0 Then
' Do operation
End If
Fetch Next From ..
You could also use the following if you're not worried about case sensitivity.
If String1<>String2 Then
' Do operation
End If
Fetch Next From ..
Hope this helps.
Regards
Sue.
