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. > > > > > > ________________________________ > To unsubscribe from this list, please send an email to lists...@witango.com with "unsubscribe witango-talk" in the body. _____ To unsubscribe from this list, please send an email to lists...@witango.com with "unsubscribe witango-talk" in the body. _____ To unsubscribe from this list, please send an email to lists...@witango.com with "unsubscribe witango-talk" in the body. ---------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, please send an email to lists...@witango.com with "unsubscribe witango-talk" in the body.
