[!INCLUDEtsql-appliesto-ss2008-all-md]
Compares two expressions (a comparison operator) in [!INCLUDEssCurrent]. When you compare nonnull expressions, the result is TRUE if the left operand has a value higher than the right operand; otherwise, the result is FALSE. If either or both operands are NULL, see the topic SET ANSI_NULLS (Transact-SQL).
Transact-SQL Syntax Conventions
expression > expression
expression
