Description

The STRCMP() function compares two strings, character by character, and returns a numeric value as follows:


Return Value Description
-1 <expC1> is less than <expC2>
0 <expC1> and <expC2> are identical
1 <expC1> is greater than <expC2>


The STRCMP() function does a case-sensitive comparison. The STRCASECMP() function can be used for case-insensitive comparison.


Example

cUSERPRIVS = [YYYNNYNN]
if strcmp(cUSERPRIVS,'NNNNNNNYN')= 0
    SysMaint()
else
    return
endif
