Also please make sure you have an index on 'Target Date' if you are going to run this kind of a search else when your record count reaches are few hundred thousands, you won't have too much fun waiting for the results of that search..

So time date field (target date) - 60*60*24 < target date. I am hoping this shows me what is going to escalate or exceed target tommorow.
