I don't really know why it worked, but I tried it on a hunch thinking it would help the logic find the part after the "OR"!

That did it. Any idea why? It seems redundant to me. Jason On Wed, Nov 7, 2012 at 2:08 PM, David Durling <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: ** Jason, I see what you mean. Try adding an extra set of parentheses around each part (clause) OR (clause): ((((((( 'Arrival Time' - "1/1/1970")+3600) % 86400) >= (20 * 3600)) AND (((('Arrival Time' - "1/1/1970" )+3600) % 86400) < (24 * 3600))) AND 'Arrival Time' > "5/1/2012" AND 'Arrival Time' < "5/2/2012")) OR ((((((( 'Arrival Time' - "1/1/1970")+3600) % 86400) >= (0 * 3600)) AND (((('Arrival Time' - "1/1/1970" )+3600) % 86400) < (4 * 3600))) AND 'Arrival Time' > "5/2/2012" AND 'Arrival Time' < "5/3/2012")) David David Durling University of Georgia From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>] On Behalf Of Jason Miller Sent: Wednesday, November 07, 2012 5:03 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Query for tickets between 8 PM and 4 AM the following day ** I am trying to run a quick and dirty search of tickets submitted from 8 PM and 4 AM the following day. I using this query: (((((( 'Arrival Time' - "1/1/1970")+3600) % 86400) >= (20 * 3600)) AND (((('Arrival Time' - "1/1/1970" )+3600) % 86400) < (24 * 3600))) AND 'Arrival Time' > "5/1/2012" AND 'Arrival Time' < "5/2/2012") OR (((((( 'Arrival Time' - "1/1/1970")+3600) % 86400) >= (0 * 3600)) AND (((('Arrival Time' - "1/1/1970" )+3600) % 86400) < (4 * 3600))) AND 'Arrival Time' > "5/2/2012" AND 'Arrival Time' < "5/3/2012") I broke it down into two parts. To the left of the OR finds 8 PM to midnight and to the right of the OR finds midnight to 4 AM of the following day. When I run each half separate it returns the expected results. When I combine the two with the OR I only get results for the half (8 to midnight). I am sure I am missing something simple. Maybe it is time for some afternoon coffee? Does anybody see my mistake?
