The volser entry fields can contain up to six alphanumeric characters. The 2
volsers must be entered in the same format. Corresponding characters in
each volser must both be either alphabetic or both be numeric. For
example, AAA998 and AAB004 are of the same form, whereas AA9998 and
AAB004 are not.
The volsers that fall within a range are determined as follows. The volser
range is incremented where alphabetic characters are incremented
alphabetically and numeric characters are incremented numerically. For
example, volser range ABC000 through ABD999 would result in a range of
2000 volsers (ABC000 - ABC999 and ABD000 - ABD999).
