What does the CASE syntax mean? - VB6

I have the following code in a VB6 project that I just inherited.

Case Is > "S"
Case Is > "Q"
Case Is >= "A"
Case Is = "M"

The only one I understand is the case Is = "M"

What do the characters ">" (more) mean?

Strings can be compared with more or less than just numbers. Basically, this should compare their ascii values.

He compares them alphabetically. See the section here on MSDN called String Comparison.

From the docs:

, , .

. . .

A < B < E < Z < a < b < e < z < À < Ê < Ø < à < < ø

, , . , :

(A = a) (À = à) (B = b) (E = e) ( = < (Ø = ø) (Z = Z)
