To return a result if one value is greater than or equal to another:

Use the greater than or equals symbol >= within an opening [If] tag. The following example checks if the string 'def' is alphabetically greater than the string 'abc'. The contents of the [If] ... [/If] tags is returned since the condition is True.

[If: 'def' >=  'abc']
  The first string is alphabetically greater than the second string.
[/If]

The first string is alphabetically greater than the second string.
