FYI - MATCH does a string comparison too. e.g. VAL1 = "43008E-112" VAL2 = "43008E-108" IF (VAL1 MATCHES VAL2) THEN CRT "THIS IS STRANGE" END does not print the message either. --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://li

Just out of curiosity: How do you arrive at numbers of the E-108 magnitude ? After all, measuring the diameter of a quark (sth like E-18 m ) with the diameter of the entire (known) universe ( 3 * E+26 m ) as the unit, only gets us down to about E-44??? -- mats --- u2-users mailing
