Brenda,

        UV did a left-justified string comparison because one element
was non-numeric:

                "1" < "1X" < "40"

        Had SEL been a numeric, the comparison probably would have
stayed right-justified and given the results you expected.

I just have a hard time visualizing why 1X is GE than 1 and LE 40 (from
the program I tracked the error to).  We are assuming it has something
to do with Scientific notation.
