Checkout the COMPARE() function in HELP -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of HENDERSON MIKE, MR Sent: Wednesday, 6 July 2005 9:56 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] String compare anomaly {Unclassified}
When I do a compare, "0" compares as equal to "00000" [one zero is the same as five zeros] OK, so maybe it thinks it's a numeric compare, despite the data being surrounded by quotes Oops! "0 " compares as equal to "00000 " [zero-space is the same as five zeros-space] But "*" does not compare equal to "*****" What?!?! DISCLAIMER: Disclaimer. This e-mail is private and confidential.
