Example (as VBA Function)
The STRCOMP function can only be used in VBA code in Microsoft Excel.Let's look at some Excel STRCOMP function examples and explore how to use the STRCOMP function in Excel VBA code:StrComp ("TechOnTheNet.com", "TechOnTheNet.com")
Result: 0
StrComp ("TechOnTheNet.com", "Abc")
Result: 1
StrComp ("TechOnTheNet.com", "Xyz")
Result: -1
StrComp ("TechOnTheNet.com", NULL)
Result: NULL
For example:Dim LResult As Integer
LResult = StrComp ("TechOnTheNet.com", "TechOnTheNet.com")
In this STRCOMP example, the variable called LResult would now contain the value 0 since both string values are equal.
