[AccessD] SQL between

I stopped using the BETWEEN in all my queries using dates about 7 years
ago.  Doesn't matter to me what database  ORACLE, MS SQL, SYBASE,
ACCESS, ETC..   It is safer and more accurate to use.  This way I also
don't mess up going from one to another.

As I said in the query problem before it has to do with a date having
date/time.  A certain "time" during the day will not get selected when
just using a plain date in the where statement.  

WHERE tbldate > day_before_start_dt and tbldate < day_after_End_date
Where tbledate > '31-AUG-2005' and tbldate < '01-OCT-2005' 

What fun
Have a great weekend
