Default Why my code do not work : - (

soniya..

Either your columns OR B1/C1 contain data that looks like dates but in
fact are strings(text).

OR

your data or b1/c1 contains timeportions



maybe changing to
x = "=" & range("B1").text
y = "=" & Range("C1").text

or
x = "=" & int(range("B1"))
y = "=" & int(range("C1"))



will help, but I suggest to make sure
u use the same data types in search range
and criteria cells

Hi all,

this is what i got while recording macro and worked fine..

Sheets("IncomeData").Select
Range("A2").Select
Range(Range("A2:F2"), Range("A2:F2").End
(xlDown)).Select
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=5,
Criteria1:="=01/07/2003", Operator:=xlAnd _
, Criteria2:="<=01/08/2003"

But when I changed it to:

x= "=" & range("B1")
y = "=" & Range("C1")

Range(Range("A2:F2"), Range("A2:F2").End
(xlDown)).Select
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=5, Criteria1:=x,
Operator:=xlAnd _
, Criteria2:=y

then no record shows in the filtered data.. while there
are several records meet the condition..

What would be the possible reason for this strange
behaviour...?

(I am using XL XP)

TIA
