CLASS EXPRESSION using NOT or NE

[Larry Nolan]

Hi,
    I have a shape file with up to 20 possible feature codes and there is
only 1 that I don't want displayed. I am trying to use the CLASS Expression
functions but with out any luck.
   What I am trying to use is NE operator. Does one exist.

    CLASSITEM DESCRIPTIO
      CLASS
      EXPRESSION ([DESCRIPTIO] ne 'Virtual Line')
      SYMBOL 0
      OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 255
     COLOR  0 0 255
   END # CLASS


but this does not work. Any ideas.
