Does the help not clarify it for you? :-

"Use a right-justified comparison for numeric strings, use a left-justified comparison for text strings.

For mixed strings, take care. For example, a right-justified comparison of the strings AB100 and AB99 indicates that AB100 is greater than AB99 since 100 is greater than 99. But a right-justified comparison of the strings AC99 and AB100 indicates that AC99 is greater since C is greater than B."
