SQLite is typeless, see: http://www.sqlite.org/datatypes.html, paying particular attention to section 3.0 on "comparison and sort order." As a string, "1/1/04" is less than "12/29/03". If you store your dates in -MM-DD format, they'll sort & compare properly as you would expect. Michael - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
