Let me just start by saying I'm a very accomplished ASP programmer. I need
to rely on that becuase this error boggles the mind.
Just today, I had to troubleshoot an error in one of my applications and I
tracked it down to a single condition statement. Here it is (very complex
code to follow):
<code>
If (CSng(ccTuition ) <> tuition) Then
</code>
Again, just today, this line started to disfunction. I validated the values
and they're 100% accurate. I use singles to account for decimals. I began
trying different combinations, using CDbl and other conversions. Nothing
worked. Then (and this is the best part), I tried: If (12 = 12) Then...and
IT FAILED!!!!
I can't even begin to fathom this issue, not only does the condition not
validate, but it just started happening out of the blue. I've since changed
my statement to a string comparison becuase nothing else was working.
I'm going to lunch, boggled as ever.

what type of error are you receiving?
No error message. It works system wise, just not logic wise. See my reply to
Ray Costanzo as I'm going to clarify.

news:11******** **************@ o13g2000cwo.goo glegroups.com.. . what type of error are you receiving?
Yes, you have it correct, but I responded to quickly and didn't proof my
response - my apologies. That's what I get for posting/replying to messages
today, it's quite hectic.
My statement should evaluate False, but it evalutes to True.
Anyway, your example is correct. "1 <> 1" should evaluate to false since 1
does equal 1. That's the issue I'm having. My line of code "If
CSng(ccTuition) <> tution" evaluted to True, but it in-fact was false,
becuase both values were equal. That's why the application wasn't working to
completion, becuase it got stuck evaluting to True when it should've been
False.
All the combinations too, evaluted to True (using CSng, CDbl, etc.).
I'm rebooting tonight and going to try to use this old code again. Honestly,
I love ASP, but this is the oddest thing I've ever seen.

Yes. If ccTuition <> Tuition, it should be true. If they are equal (which
they were), it should return false.

I didn't even get that far, nor did I need to. When 12 <> 12 returned True,
I felt my grasp on logic slip away and I posted my message. This code was
also working since day one, it just started today to freak out.
I wanted to reply again since I was curious myself: Here's as simple view:
Response.Write( ccTuition & "<br>")
Response.Write( total & "<br>")
Response.Write( TypeName(ccTuit ion) & "<br>")
Response.Write( TypeName(total) & "<br>")
Response.Write( ccTuition <> total & "<br>")
'and my favorite!
Response.Write( 12 <> 12)
The output is:
2238
2238
Single
Single
True
True
