I've been looking into the various resolutions to this one but no joy.

I've got an SQL query that read as follows:

SELECT *
FROM Publications
WHERE PublicationDate BETWEEN 19/12/2001 AND 21/12/2001

It doesn't return any records even though there are over 20 for the PublicationDate 20/12/2001. The Datatype in ACCESS is Date/Time.

Any thoughts

UltraDev4, IIS5, ASP, VBScript, ACCESS

Dear Sesame,
It's been awhile since I've used Access, but I believe you need to have a hash in front of the date:

WHERE PublicationDate BETWEEN #19/12/2001 AND #21/12/2001

Regards,
Brent

Thanks Brent

Although your suggestion is not quite right it did help remind me how to do it, ie put # either side of the date:

SELECT *
FROM Publications
WHERE PublicationDate BETWEEN #19/12/2001# AND #21/12/2001#

Cheers
