Default Microsoft Query: retrieve data by dates

Hi,

Firstly, let me say I don't know how to code. My question is this.

I'm using Excel to query a Lotus Notes Database. I use Microsoft Query to do
it and it works just fine when simply retrieving data.

What I want to do is simply return data based on dates. I want records to be
returned between the current system date and the current system date minus 8
days.

E.g. Return all records between
(1) current system date 04/02/2005 and
(2) current system date 04/02/2005 MINUS 8 days
Expected result would be all records that have a date from and including
04/02/2005 and 27/01/2005

The SQL code that shows up in Microsoft query using the Wizard is this:
SELECT Copy_Of_Closed_."_8"
FROM Copy_Of_Closed_ Copy_Of_Closed_
WHERE (Copy_Of_Closed_.Priority='0 - Critical') AND
(Copy_Of_Closed_.CallType='P') AND (Copy_Of_Closed_.Status='Closed')

This is without the date filtering. As for the " " around the 8 (i.e.
Copy_Of_Closed_."_8"), I'm not sure why it does that, but it works!

I'd really appreciate any help with this and this little tiny piece of code
is stopping me from doing something really really simple!

Many thanks in advance.
