See My code :
#!/bin/ksh
STARTTIME=20050109195224
DATE_TIME=20070409201317
if (( STARTTIME > DATE_TIME )) ; then
echo "No"
else
echo "Yes"
fi
STARTTIME=20060109195224
DATE_TIME=20070409201317
if (( STARTTIME > DATE_TIME )) ; then
echo "No"
else
echo "Yes"
fi
Gives No for first if and Yes for the second one
As I mentioned using KSH on HP-UX
