Eqv operator (logical) Eqv-Operator [Runtime] Calculates the logical equivalence of two expressions.

Syntax: Result = Expression1 Eqv Expression2 Parameters: Result: Any numeric variable that contains the result of the comparison. Expression1, expression2: Any expressions that you want to compare. When testing for equivalence between Boolean expressions, the result is True if both expressions are either True or False. In a bit-wise comparison, the Eqv operator only sets the corresponding bit in the result if a bit is set in both expressions, or in neither expression. Example: Sub ExampleEqv Dim vA as Variant, vB as Variant, vC as Variant, vD as Variant Dim vOut as Variant vA = 10: vB = 8: vC = 6: vD = Null vOut = A > B Eqv B > C REM returns -1 vOut = B > A Eqv B > C REM returns -1 vOut = A > B Eqv B > D REM returns -1 vOut = (B > D Eqv B > A) REM returns 0 vOut = B Eqv A REM returns -1 End Sub
