Compare strings

[JW]

Hi,

I'm trying to see if a certain string matches a predefined string so I've
tried:
--------------
If txtCondition3 = "NO THEFT COVER unless client claim free and occupied
prems for 3 yrs" Then
response.write "1st condition"
Else
response.write "2nd condition"
End If
--------------
But I'm getting neither response!!!

Any ideas why that would be?

Thanks, Jon

That's not possible. It's either true or false. There is no inbetween.
Are you sure these lines of code are executing? Are they nested within
another if or a sub that you're not calling or something like that?

If you have the quoted string in one line it surely works

Thanks for the reponse - it had worked fine! Like a &*$%^ I'd misplaced my
response on the page!!
Sorry for troubling you
