Start Date/ End Date query

[singing4phun]

I have created a query which pulls info from tables in the same database. I
placed a start date/ end date (including "is null") criteria on the query.

When I run the report I receive data however, there are "gaps" in the data.
For example, if I request the date range of 02/01/08 thru 03/30/08, I get
back a blank datasheet. The records are in the table, but not coming back in
the query.

Also, if I leave the start date and end date as "null", I get data back data
but it is sparratic and always produces the same records (beginning with
01/07/08, then jumps to 04/26/08, then jumps to 6/25/08, then 10/12/08, to
11/17/08 and finally 12/1 thru 12/10/08 with duplicates).

There are are over 4K in the database, but the query only pulls back a
portion and that portion is sprinkled through the date range in date groups,
with duplicates.

How do I fix this?

It would help if you provided a sample of the SQL statement you are trying to
use.

This is the statement I have in the "Date" field of my query which is pulling
from my table. "Between [Start Date] And [End Date]"

The next two fields in the query are: [Start Date] Is Null and then [End
Date] Is Null.

I'm not sure where to copy and paste the actual SQL statement from.

From the query grid, find the View menu option or button on the ribbon bar
(2007), select the SQL view to view the entire SQL for the Query.

Are [Start Date] and [End Date] parameters that you are passing to the query
when it gets run? If so, this is what we call a parameter query.

If so, they probably need to be declared as dates.
1. Open the query in design view
2. Right click in the top portion of the query design window, but not on one
of the tables, then select the Parameters option from the popup menu
3. In the parameters dialog box, enter [Start Date] on one row, and [End
Date] on another, making sure to select Date/Time as their data type. Then
click OK
4. Save the query
Now, run the query, are you getting the results you expect?

That apparently did the trick. Thanks a million!
