I'm currently not home at the moment. What if I put the EndDate >= .
Like so:

WHERE BeginDate = #CreateODBCDate(Now())#

OR EndDate >= #CreateODBCDate(Now())#

Honestly not sure... like i said, Access has some wierd little quirks with the way it reads SQL statements, in certain situations.

I would say... give it a shot... try any combination of things...sooner than later you gonna get it to work. You seem very close.

Great News!!!

Anytime... so glad I could help...

Actually you allowed me to shake some of the web's of my ColdFusion skills, I haven't programmed in CF in almost 1 1/2 years...although I really miss it.

Some of the Greatest CF Tools for me have been without a doubt, the ColdFusion Web Application Construction KIT...by Ben Forta.. (worth the price)

Macromedia live docs.

http://livedocs.macromedia.com (again worth the price **FREE**)

and This is also a great tutorial site.

Thanks Torch7. I just thought about something else. How do I create an entire multi-paragraph item? I looked at the database and saw that the limit for text is 255 characters.
My example would be after the user selects the headline item and views the details of that headline which is less than 255 characters(no problem). Now lets say I want to elaborate on the story. I'm still thinking on this one.

Make the database field... MEMO and not Text.

i had a similar kind of an issue with MS SQL Server which also supports only 255 characters for the text field.
i solved it by making the text field to varchar of teh desired length i wanted.

le me know if this works out....
