Comparison Failing

[Ark68]

I feel this should be a very easy solution, but I am finding myself struggling.

                        For p = 70 To 73
                            If tpgo = "<" Then
                                pdd = format(ws_sbase.Cells(p, 2), "h:mm am/pm")
                                If pdd > CDate(dpgo) Then 'those that start before groom offset time, when the only program, is eligible
                                    ws_sbase.Range("B" & p & ":C" & p).ClearContents
                                    ws_sbase.Range("D" & p) = "X"
                                    ws_sbase.Range("E" & p) = ""
                                End If
                            End If
                        Next p

The idea is to compare variable pdd (time) to the value in column B of a range defined by B70:E73. Sadly, I don't have an HTML generator installed to show you the data.

Within the range:
B70 = 7:00 am (pdd = 7:00 am)
B71 = 7:00 am (pdd = 7:00 am)
B72 = 7:00 am (pdd = 7:00 am)
B73 = 4:00 pm (pdd = 4:00 pm)

CDate(dpgo) = 7:00 am

This code seems to be inappropriately (based on my goal) to be eliminating all including those where pdd matches cdate(dpgo). The only range that should be affected because pdd is greater than CDate(dpgo) would be row 73 4:00 pm > 7:00 am. Rows 70-72 shouldn't be affected.

                                End If
                            End If
                        Next p

Maybe, converting the text from pdd to date so that it is compared date with date

Regarding this section here:

 For p = 70 To 73
     If tpgo = "<" Then

since it appears that "tpgo" is not changing within that loop, I think it would be more efficient to "flip" these two lines, as if "tpgo" does not equal "<", you should have to go through the loop 4 times, to do nothing.
