On trying to catch up with this thread I don't think I saw what I would have considered the most likely reason for the term "logical". I assumed the word "logical" refers to Boolean logical values (true and false, usually represented as 1 and 0) and hence to a bit string. So logical comparisons simply treat the operand as a bit string. Jonathan Scott, HLASM IBM Hursley, UK
