2.0 = Time(1999;10;07) --> 0

Before the operation, the operand of the type
Date/Timeis converted to Number. During
execution of the operation, the exact value is
always used after this conversion, even if max-
imum 5 places after the comma can be dis-
played (see Chapter 2.4.4.7.5, page 74).

thus: "1999-10-07 00:00:00 UTC+2"),
afterwards the texts are compared according
to ASCII value (see Chapter 2.4.4.10, page
