The database design is not conducive to what you are trying to do. The
column should be of decimal type where the number represents the length. So
3/4 would be in the DB as .75
I don't believe there is a way to do what you are trying to do with SQL.

Subject: SQL Question...
In my db I've got a varchar column called 'width'.
It has values like 3/4" or 5/8", etc.
I'd like to write a where clause in a SQL query that does
something like this:
WHERE 0=0
AND (WIDTH BETWEEN #FORM.Width1# AND #FORM.Width2#)
[i.e. -- (AND (0.75 BETWEEN 0.5 AND 1))]
What do I need to do to make this work? Covert? Cast?
