Thankyou to Klatuu for helping me as far as you did. My SQL is obviously a
little weak too.
Nikos, thanks for replying. You were spot on with your guess about the
dates. I'm in the UK (if only Bill Gates had been British, then everyone
else would have had these date problems)
Having now read up on DateSerial, I feel that your solution should work.
But it doesn't. However, I changed the search dates to ambiguous ones (in
the US/UK date context) e.g. I swapped 11/5/05 to 5/11/05 in the backend
records and the code then worked. At least I now know that the problem is
simply (!!) the US/UK date thing. All I have to do now is get Access to
transpose the relevant bits of the date. I'll be reading up on it all as
soon as I've finished this and if I find the solution I'll post it here.
In the meantime, if you know the answer, I'd be grateful, since it will
save me a (probably)heap of time.
Thanks again.
Gary
