Operator

Used to determine whether one alphabetic or quantitative expression is smaller than or equal to another. String comparisons are case-insensitive.

Usage

result = expression1 <= expression2

Part	Type	Description
result	Boolean	Returns True if expression1 is less than or equal to expression2.
expression1	String, Number, or Date	Any alphabetic or quantitative expression.
expression2	String, Number, or Date	Any alphabetic or quantitative expression.

Notes

A string is "less than" another string if it is first when the two strings are sorted alphabetically. Use StrComp to do a case-sensitive string comparison.

You can use Operator_Compare to define comparisons for classes.

Sample Code

This example uses the <= operator to evaluate a and b.

Var a,b As Integer
If TextField1.Value <> "" And TextField2.Value <> "" Then
a = TextField1.Value.ToInteger
b = TextField2.Value.ToInteger
If a <= b Then
MessageBox("A is less than or equal to B!")
Else
Beep
End If
Else
MessageBox("Please enter values into both boxes!")
End If
