NE

 The NE function returns a Boolean value that  specifies  if  the
 parameters  are  not  equal according to the ASCII values of the
 strings' characters.


 Syntax:

    NE( str1,str2 )


 The  parameters  'str1'  and  'str2'  must  be  character-string
 expressions.   VSI  Pascal  does  not  pad  shorter strings with
 blanks.
