pfarrelli pfarrelli Fresh Scripter Registered: 2005-11-16 Posts: 46	After Getfileversion assings a value to my variable $Version and I confirm using at (9,1) $Version which yeilds: 8.0.0.825 The following statment does not hold true: IF ($Version < 10) do all this funky stuff EndIf Why?

Code: $version = "8.0.0.825" $subversion = SubStr ($version, 1, 2) If $subVersion <> "10" ?"Version is not 10" ?"Doing some funky stuff now." EndIf _________________________ Mart - Chuck Norris once sold ebay to ebay on ebay.
