You can use the Compare InstallAnywhere Variables Numerically rule to compare two InstallAnywhere variables numerically or to compare an InstallAnywhere variable against a specific value.

When this rule is applied, it converts the content of the variables into numeric values and then compares them. Integer, floating point, long and double operations are supported in this rule. However if the value represented by the variable is not parseable as a numeric value, then the rule returns false.
