Using relational operators

Use the following relational operators to perform Classification attribute searches.

Relational operator Definition Example
= Equal to = 3.0 in the Corner Radius attribute box of the Taper Shank End Cutter subclass finds all library objects within the subclass with a corner radius equal to 3.0. You can achieve the same behavior by typing a number. If no value is given after the equal sign, the system searches for all instances where no value is set for the attribute.
> Greater than > 3.0 in the Corner Radius attribute box finds all library objects with a corner radius greater than 3.0.
< Less than < 3.0 in the Corner Radius attribute box finds all library objects with a corner radius less than 3.0.
>= Greater than or equal to >= 3.0 in the Corner Radius attribute box finds all library objects with a corner radius greater than or equal to 3.0.
<= Less than or equal to <= 3.0 in the Corner Radius attribute box finds all library objects with a corner radius less than or equal to 3.0.
!= Not equal to != 15.00 in the Diameter attribute box finds all library objects with a diameter not equal to 15.00. If no value is given after the equal sign, the system searches for all instances where any value is set for the attribute.
Range 10.00 – 20.00 in the Diameter attribute box finds all library objects with a diameter within the range of 10.00 to 20.00 (including the values 10.00 and 20.00). A blank space must precede and follow the hyphen.
| OR Walter | Kennametal in the Vendor attribute box of the Taper Shank End Cutter class finds all library objects within the class with a vendor of Walter or Kennametal. You can use the wildcard character (*) in this type of statement.
"" Exact string "blue or green" — Teamcenter searches for the string "blue or green". If you type "4 – 10", Teamcenter searches for the string "4 – 10", not the range 4–10.
