I have Oracle db entries where three numbers represent a date.  This  
is because the user can enter in just the year, or just the year and  
month, or the whole dang thing.  Now though, I have to query on this  
to find if the "date" is between two other dates in the search  
parameters.  Also, the month or day entries that weren't used are  
left blank (null), so that when editing is done, they still appear as  
not selected.

Do I do:

dbYear < searchYear AND dbyear > searchYear2
         if so dbMonth < searchMonth AND dbMonth > searchMonth2
                 if so dbDay < searchDay AND dbMonth > searchDay2

or do I figure out some way to create a date in SQL variables, which  
I really don't know how to do, and put in base numbers where the  
entries are blank, like using 1 for a beginDay that is left blank and  
28,30, or 31 for endDays that are left blank and similar for months.

Thanks for any assistance.
