Table 3-11. CRITERIA VALUE parameter options and definitions

Option	Definition
GE	Indicates the operation “greater than or equal.”
tabid	table identifier.
	The identifier of a table, specified in the TABLE command, containing the
	numeric value to which the test field is compared.

Default	No default
CRITERIA VALUE	• A test criteria specifying the EQ operator may return a true
parameter: points	result even though the character strings being compared are
to note	not identically equal. For example, ‘0000’ is equal to ‘0,’ ‘0.0,’
	‘$0.00,’ and so forth.
	• A numeric character string is compared with a constant
	character string only if the numeric string is properly
	constructed. The system observes the following rules when
	evaluating a numeric character string:
	– A properly constituted numeric character string should
	consist of a single sequence of numeric characters, which
	may be interspersed only with characters from a rigidly
	defined set of “separator” characters that are allowed in
	the format of a decimal number.
	Improperly constructed numeric character strings would
	include such strings as ‘1, 2, 3’, ‘957N4218’, and ‘00–
	123’.
	– All numeric character strings are evaluated as decimal
	numbers, with a decimal point separating the integer
	portion of the number from the fractional portion of the
	number.
	Due to international variations in decimal number formats,
	the characters that are interpreted as the decimal point,
	and the characters that are interpreted as the “thousands”
	separator are taken from the VCODE table that is
	specified in the VOLUME command. The VCODE
	command is used to specify the character translation
	code and/or the character type code, and must be
	specified if the VCODE command defaults are not
	applicable.
