STRCOMP |
STRCOMP(string1, string2 [,compare]) |
Returns the result of a string comparison (Integer). |
string1 | The first text string (String). |
string2 | The second text string (String). |
compare | (Optional) A vbCompareMethod constant specifying the type of string comparison to use (Integer): -1 = vbUseCompareOption (uses the "Option Compare" setting) 0 = vbBinaryCompare (case sensitive) (default) 1 = vbTextCompare (not case sensitive) 2 = vbDatabaseCompare (uses an Access database) |
REMARKS |
* This function is case sensitive (by default). * The value returned is -1 when "string1" is less than "string2". * The value returned is 0 when "string1" is equal to "string2". * The value returned is 1 when "string1" is greater than "string2". * The value returned is Null if either "string1" or "string2" is Null. * If "compare" is left blank, then -1 is used. If there is no Option Compare statement provided then vbBinaryCompare (0) is used. * If "compare" is Null, then an error occurs. * You can use the STR function to return the text string of a number. * You can use the STRCOMP$ function to return a String data type instead of Variant data type. * You can use the STRCONV function to return the text string converted to a specific case or type. * If you type in STRCOMP$ with valid arguments the editor will automatically change this function to just STRCOMP. * The equivalent .NET function is Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings.StrComp * For the Microsoft documentation refer to learn.microsoft.com |
