I am experiencing a strange problem with the following code:
SELECT * FROM MyTable WHERE test() > 10

FUNCTION test
RETURN (MAX(MyTable.DATE1-MyTable.DATE2,0))
The code above returns (selects) no records if the value after test() is greater than 10 (e.g. test() > 11). However, many records in the table MyTable have value of DATE1 greater than DATE2 by more than even 20.

What am I missing in my sample code above?

Thank you.
