access_asp thread: Refining a search


Message #1 by "Cathryn Bennett" <cbennett@f...> on Thu, 12 Dec 2002 14:12:13 -0500
Quick question...

I have the following

strsql = "Select * From timelog " &_
    "where last LIKE '%" & Replace(strSearch, "'", "''") & "%' OR first LIKE
'%" & Replace(strSearch, "'", "''") & "%'"

This works like a charm BUT...

I need to refine the search to today's records only. What do I add and where
do I add it to refine the search?  None of the variations I've tried seem to
work, I get syntax errors.

Thanks,

Cathryn

HAve you tried the clause

"AND yourDate=Date()"

Thanks for the response.

This still returns "all" of the records, not just those from today (today
being whatever day it is when I run the query <grin>).

try parenthesis around your clause and join it with "AND yourDate=Date()"
