>              Greater than -- binary                     (Relational)


Syntax:        <exp1> > <exp2>

Type:          All

Operands:      <exp1> and <exp2> are expressions of any type to
               be compared.

Description:   The > (greater than) is a binary operator that compares
               two values of the same data type and returns true (.T.)
               if <expC1> is greater than <expC2>.

               Character: The comparison is based on the underlying
               ASCII code.  Remember that ASCII codes for alphabetic
               characters are ascending, i.e. the code for "A" is 65 and
               the code for "Z" is 90.

               Date: Dates are compared according to the underlying
               date value.

               Logical: True (.T.) is always greater than false
               (.F.).

               Memo: Treated the same as character.

               Numeric: Compared based on magnitude.


----------------------------------- Examples -------------------------------

   * Character.
   ? "Z"  > "A"                         && Result: .T.
   ? "ZA" > "A"                         && Result: .T.
   ? "Z"  > "AZ"                        && Result: .T.

   * Date.
   ? CTOD("12/12/88") >;
      CTOD("12/11/88")                  && Result: .T.

   * Logical.
   ? .T. > .F.                          && Result: .T.

   * Numeric.
   ? 2 > 1                              && Result: .T.
   ? 1 > 2                              && Result: .F.
