Date is possibly(probably) a reserved word? Even if it isn't, your test will fail when the year rolls over - you should test /mm/dd. And I think you might need apostrophes around today's formatted date? None of this is guaranteed, I am famous for being wrong. -Original Message-

I think you need quotes around your date in the comparison in the SQL. But I always have trouble with QoQ syntax for some reason. --Ben Doom Mark Lewis wrote: Hi, Wondered if someone could advise on this problem I am having. I have created a query as shown below... cfset event =

I would like to run a query on this query where it finds only the records where the date is greater than today. You cannot compare dates if they are stored in American format. Use QuerySetCell(event, date, 2007/07/28, 1) Instead: always with mask /mm/dd Then WHERE date
