Looks like you're using rails 1.1 or earlier. In more recent versions
of rails you don't need to do any of this:
Order.find(:all,:conditions => ['created_at BETWEEN ?
AND ?',start_date, end_date])
would just work
start_date.to_s(:db) might work, but I really can't remember what
works on really old versions of rails.
