If one or both bits in the comparison are 1, then a 1 is returned. Otherwise, a 0 is returned.   When using the Or to compare Boolean expressions, the order of the expressions is important.   Code: <% =True Or True %> <% =True Or False %> <% =False Or True %> <% =False Or False %>   <% =True Or Null %> <% =Null Or True %> <% =False Or Null %> <% =Null Or False %> <% =Null Or Null %>   Output: True True True False   True True (Null output) (Null output) (Null output)   In this example, the Or performs a bitwise comparison on the 1 (in binary 001) and the 2 (in binary 010), and returns a 3 (in binary 011).   Code: <% Expression1 = 1 Expression2 = 2 Result = Expression1 Or Expression2 Response.Write "Result = " & Result %>   Output: Result = 3 Copyright 1999-2001 by Infinite Software Solutions, Inc.
