Description

The STRCMP() function compares two strings, character by character, and returns a numeric value as follows:

Return Value	Description
-1	<expC1> is less than <expC2>
0	<expC1> and <expC2> are identical
1	<expC1> is greater than <expC2>

The STRCMP() function does a case-sensitive comparison. The STRCASECMP() function can be used for case-insensitive comparison.

cUSERPRIVS = [YYYNNYNN]
if strcmp(cUSERPRIVS,'NNNNNNNYN')= 0
    SysMaint()
else
    return
endif
