[AccessD] Date Compare

Whatever works but I think you are making it harder on yourself than
you have to. You don't need that between. Make a table with one record
for each date, keyed by that date and then have a second field for the
beginning of the weekdate or the end of the week date or whatever you
want to really track.....You have to set it up one time but you can
then use it over and over. I can send you a table offline with a bunch
of dates in it if you would like.
