(less-equal compare) le and ge does a string comparison... you want a numerical comparison < and > "89" le "100" is false because 8 is bigger than 1 on the ASCII chart "89" le "99" is true because 8 is smaller than 9 "98" le "99" is also true... "089" le "100" is true because 0 is smaller than 1 Try it.. but le and ge are for string comparisons... remember it goes down the string one charater at a time and is ordered as on the ASCII chart by the decimal value. -----Original Message----- From: Dittrich G.
