Default Sorting of text data different in Excel adn VBA? Office 2K3

Hello guys, I found this forum by looking up the meaning of error 2042.
Thanks to you guys now I know that the value looked up is not found in
the range. And there it lies the problem!

I have a very large list from which the values can be looked up, so, I
created a small VBA function that breaks down the list in smaller
ranges and then using a Select statement it looks up a value within a
range.

If I put in Excel the following, the answer is TRUE:
= "EP102RB" < "EP-1080SD"

If I open an immediate window in VBA, the following returns FALSE:
PRINT "EP102RB" < "EP-1080SD"

How can that be? BTW, I never saw this happenign in 95, 97, 2K.
