Hi Experts,
I have a small doubt about the '>=' ( greater than or equal to ) operator usage in select statement. Is this operator by any chance perform not as desired in ECC 6.0. Is it a good option to use 'GE' instead of '>='. ?
It may sound a bit awkward, but still I would like to know. I am facing a situation, which could be related to this. An early response would be highly appreciated.
I would request,you NOT TO REPLY with links/explanations which says how to use select statement. Only answer if you have the answers related to this query.

Hi,
The only difference is GE will take a little more time than >= as system need to convert the keyword into actual operator when fetching data from Database.

????? Every Open SQL statements is translated to the SQL slang the underlying database is talking regardless if you type GE or >=
If the result differs using >= or GE i would open a call at SAP instead of asking in SDN.

It is recommended that you only use the operators =, <>, <, >, <=, >= or only the operators EQ, NE, LT, GT, LE, GE.
Obsolete forms: ><, =<, =>
so >= is same as GE.. you can use any thing. no issues.

Hi,
Thank you for your replies. As fas as I could understand that there is no as such limitations in ECC 6.0 in using both of them.
