Which kind of output you want? (I don't remember what strcmp actually does)

Hi,

true / false OR 0 - if match != 0 if it doesn't match .

Hello asaf,

there's a hugh amount of comparison functions in the comparison palette. Just try them!

If all that you want to know is if two different strings are equal, use the Equal? function.

Thanks,

I though it is only arithmetic comparisson .

Hi,

Under Libraries<< Formatting and I/O Library<< String Manipulation there is a 'CompareStrings' function that will do the comparison you want and you can even set it to be case sensitive or not.

Good luck,

Which of course is in CVI but since the question was made to the LabVIEW forum, I think the poster was asking for the LabVIEW equivalent.
