Hello. Finally getting back to this issue now.
I am running 6.2.1 on my private PC now, and can reproduce half of the issue encountered earlier.
That is, the < and > signs are correctly interpreted, also without a whitespace in between.

However, two numbers in one cell, separated by nothing but a ; is not interpreted as numerical.

Started a fresh DW session and loaded the Wikipedia compounds.
Hovering over the Molweight column header, it nicely shows the values in there are numerical. This is still correct if I add '>' to the first value (image1).
However, if I add a second number to a molecular weight, without whitespace, the perceived data type changes to text (image2). Adding a space reverts it back to numerical (image 3).

I also attach the .dwar (only first 3 wiki compounds).

(the reason this is important to us, is that we use an in-house application that generates dwar files from our internal project SQL databases. If say an IC50 was measured more than once, each value is written into the dwar file separated by ';' without whitespace. We can of course change those scripts to include the whitespace, but we have hundreds of dwar files in circulation without the whitespace, that cannot be properly interpreted anymore by DW6).

[EDIT: 6.2.1 tested on Win11 Home 23H2. Initial report was with 6.0.0 on Win10 Pro, likely 22H2]
