Default # sign doesn't work with between-date searching

Hello,

I'm trying to get Excel to retrieve records between two dates in an access
table, but get a syntax error when i use pound signs (#). If I take the #s
out, it works partly only if the access dates are in "text" format, instead
of Date/Time.
I'm using Excel 2002, and Access 2000.

code is below:

cmd.ActiveConnection = cn
cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM tasks " & _
"WHERE task_ass_date Between " & _
"#11/1/2006# And #11/31/2006#"

Thanks, any help appreciated
