I just tried your request. It only worked if I included a leading '0' in
the date if the day or month is single digit (03/03/1999..12/12/2000).
Also, make sure to use the full 4 digit year code (2000).
In my search, I was looking for 'Lapsed' under Status. It worked fine and
found the currect records.

Using the full year didn't work either.. I have tried restarting the
computer and Ebase, I have tried many different things, but nothing is
working.
