This has never come up before and I know it's probably a stupid question,
but I am trying to write an IF statement where I need to compare characters
rather then numbers. I went through the manual and I am a bit confused. I
thought that if you used single quotes, it would look at the expression as a
character compare rather then a numeric compare. For example...

<@IF EXPR="'00000 = '0'" TRUE ="They really are not the same - one has a lot
more zeros then the other" FALSE="They are the same">

I have a client who has numeric codes that can start with multiple zeros and
I need to be able to get a true or false depending on the actual characters
rather then the numeric value.

00000 = 0 would then be false.

Probably a stupid fix, I just cannot see it. By the way, the <@IFEQUAL> tag
evaluates the same way. I need a string comparison rather the numeric.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

John M.
