If issuedate is really a date and not a string variable use the date.mdy
function in your logical expression--date.mdy(1,14,2004).

Subject: Date greater than or equal to
Sorry guys just a quick question. I have a variable, IssueDate, in date
format (mm/dd/yyyy), and i want to select only cases where the variable
is
less than a particular date. When I just go to Select Cases, and I say
IssueDate < 01/14/2004, my resulting file does not include dates only
less
than this date. I even did IssueDate <= 01/14/2004. Can somenoe plz tell
me
is this normally supposed to work and something is wrong on my end, or
is
there another way to select cases less than or equal to a particular
date?
Thanks so much!
