I just tried it out and it works.  Here are ALL of the parameters...

Look for whom?
INDIVIDUAL

Where to look
BIRTH DATE

How to look
CONTAINS

What to look for
22 Jul

That should do it!  My dates are set up as 22 Jul 1850 so that is why I put
22 Jul in that spot.  I have 7 people born on my birthday (30 Nov) in my
file :) :)

Thanks Michele, but I must have done something wrong- that didn't
work for me. Does the format of the date make a difference? I tried:
July 22
22 July
Jul 22
22 Jul

and none of those worked. I wonder what I did wrong?  But using the
calendar list did work.

Thanks.
