Can any please explain ?

Scott,

I always do these like this:

dd{"~" eq "Bank~"

This works when you are comparing codes or anything that has left 
justified data and has different lengths.

You can also do this with an envelope if the data can be right or left 
justified.

"~"{dd{"~" eq "~"{12{"~"

I have run into so many cases it is second nature any more.
