When performing lookups into the example range map, the value in CustomerVar97 will take the
range map and search for the range that the value belongs in (if any). Some examples and their
results are:
CustomerVar97 = 1; CustomerVar89 will be set to AA
CustomerVar97 = 4; CustomerVar89 will be set to BB
CustomerVar97 = 300; CustomerVar89 will not be set
