texte = Hi Terry, I've read the docs you've mentioned. Thank you. I've tried your suggestions, along with a dozen other variations, and I either get all the records returned, or no records returned. This is the current code which returns no records. Am I setting the TENDAYSAGO variable wrong? It looks correct on my screen. [text]TENDAYSAGO=[math date]{[date]}-10[/math][/text] TENDAYSAGO= [TENDAYSAGO]
[search db=assign_events/ temp.db&grSKUPdata=0&FORMATTED_DATEtype=date&rnFORMATTED_DATEdatarq= [TENDAYSAGO] [date]] I get every past record returned if I use {[TENDAYSAGO]}. At least it not giving me future dated records anymore. Thanks again, sfb On Nov 12, 2009, at 12:00 AM, Terry Wilson wrote: > Yeah a few things. You can't do two fieldnamedata=xx on the same > field.
