The task is this:

 

If I have a part number like.....

775-7 (or higher)

786-7 (or higher)

809-8 (or higher)

69-1 (or higher)

 

...... then check for a certain thing to happen.

 

Now, I import part numbers as text because of the dashes that are in some of the part numbers.  Here are some of the part numbers that I would be checking:

775-7-6-4  (would qualify because it is a version of 775-7)

775-6-2         (would not qualify because it is lower than 775-7)

786-8-7-2  (would qualify because it is higher than 786-7)

69-1-0    (would qualify because it is a version of 69-1)

 

As you can see, the only thing I really need to confirm in this situation is if the first number after the dash is equal to or greater than a certain number.  But, as I said prior, I import part numbers in as text.

 

I think I want something like this:

Return the first character after the dash, convert it to a number, is it greater than or equal to 7 if the part number starts with 775, if the part number starts with 809, is it greater than or equal to 8........

Since I'm only dealing with 10 total scenarios, I don't mind just building a 10 option if statement.

 

Please let me know your suggestions on how best to deal with this.
