The problem you are having is your date in the Access table has a timestamp of 00:00:00 when you say now() that has a timestamp of the current time so you yield no results try:
The long way: <CFSET #Year# = #dateformat(now(),"yyyy")#> <CFSET #Month# = #dateformat(now(),"m")#> <cfset #daynow# = #dateformat(now(),"d")#> <cfset date=#createdate(year, month, daynow)#> <cfset date=#createODBCDateTime(date)#> At 04:20 PM 9/12/2002 -0400, you wrote: >OK I give up.
