Logical Expressions

New to MS. My question is this: I am wanting to use a logical expression
within a layer in my mapfile. The below expression will render the county
with the exact acreage of '438282.297'. How would I set it to display all
acreages in the field that are < 500,000 ? Syntax? I am running MS4W v
1.4.0.  Also, could this value (500,000) be set by a user through, say,
via a form?

Thanks much

Eric
