First, you should never use formated dates in SQL, especially if you 
want to compare them with columns.
And most especially with the month first.
If PA_START_DATE and PA_END_DATE are true date type, try this:
WHERE #CreateODBCdate(now))# BETWEEN PA_START_DATE AND PA_END_DATE

If PA_START_DATE and PA_END_DATE are actually text fields formated 
MM/DD/YYYY, then you are in trouble :-(
