Geoff,

after getting around a blank date problem, I am not getting the logic right in this. It works well if the year of both start and end dates is the same. However if I have the start date set at 31st Dec 2004 and End date at 1st Jan 2005, I get no data coming out, whereas there are dates on both days.

WHERE NOT EMPTY(dob) AND (DATE(YEAR(m.tdStart), MONTH(dob), DAY(dob)) >=m.tdstart ;
   AND DATE(YEAR(m.tdEnd), MONTH(dob), DAY(dob)) <=m.tdend );

Any ideas on how I need to embellish the logic to get it to work?
