Worth explaining
That datetime fields are stored as a single number, if I remember right. The "index" your article refers to. SQL server just displays in date/time format. It doesn't store it that way. I've been doing the >'startdate' AND 10
AND tblA.idx = tblB.idx
BTW, nice to see a Louisvillian here...live in etown and work in Jeff myself (when not telecommuting).
