is string comparison ("if str1$=str2$") case-sensitive? If it's not, is there any way to do case sensitive comparison? I know that in VB there's the IsLike() function, but I dont' know about darkBasic.

thanks

if lower$(str1$)=lower$(str2$)

it returns the dtring in lower case letters. "upper$()" does the same but in upper case letters.

What Hamish means is that string comparison is case-sensitive, but that by using upper$() or lower$() you can get a case insensitive comparison
