Here is a REXX challenge Why does this compare results in ok
ttr = '0000E0' if ttr = '000000' then say 'ok'; else say 'ng' And this one works and results in ng ttr = '0000E0' if ttr == '000000' then say 'ok'; else say 'ng' -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lionel B.
