CompareValidator not working

[tshad]

The CompareValidator doesn't seem to work correctly.

I have the following to compare 2 controls that are Currency and no matter
what I enter, it seems to give me an error. I saw in the MSDN that Currency
is supposed to allow decimals with Currency symbols ("A decimal data type
that can contain currency symbols").

If I have:

WagesMin = $800.00
WagesMax = $10,000.00

or

WagesMin = $10,000.00
WagesMax = $800.00

I still get the Validator message.

I have the Validator set as:

<asp:CompareValidator
ControlToValidate="WagesMin"
ControlToCompare="WagesMax"
Operator="LessThanEqual"
Type="Currency"
Display="Dynamic"
Text="<br>Minumum Wage must be less than or equal to the Maximum Wage"
runat="server"/>

Why doesn't this work?

Thanks,

Tom
