Using Filter Operators
When you use Active Reports to set rules to determine what data from a report to show or highlight, you use operators to describe how to make the comparison.
Comparisons take the following form: Fieldname Operator Criteria.
For operators that make comparisons that are larger, smaller, or between with text information, CRS sorts in alphabetical order.
The table below shows the operators you can use.
