RE: The result of VARIABLE[1,3] + 0

[Stuart Boydell]

-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Mark Johnson  ...  This brings up another aspect of the text/string situation: Consider this   A="000000"[1,3]   ;*zeros for both lines B="000000"[1,2]   PRINT (A=B)   and you would expect to get false as textually speaking 000 is not 00. But left alone, these 2 variables can be concluded to be numbers and thus equal even though their lengths are different. In this case, you would probably want to use the string compare function. PRINT COMPARE(A,B)   ********************************************************************** This email message and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of addressed recipient(s).
