CFQUERYPARAM on the date fixes the problem

Thanks all!

I don't _think_ QofQ does date comparisons ... However... You could probably
transform the dates in the original quer(y|ies) into a separate column i.e.

convert(int,convert(varchar,Year(datecolumn)) +
convert(varchar,month(datecolumn)) + convert(varchar,day(datecolumn))) AS
date

This would give you something like

20020615 for the 15th of June 2002 ... Since the string is all numbers, it
will sort alphabetically ...

Or I'm told you can convert a date to an integer or a float value in SQL
Server? ...

convert(int,mydatecolumn)

then the QofQ could sort or filter on that integer value
