Good day Group,

Have a problem concering advanced filter and formats. In a column there is
data
representing dates. The data are put in the column by textboxes, the column
is formated
as text.
Date
20060201
20060225
20050303
20040815
20060525
etc

When trying to filter by the advanced filter there is nothing found by using
criteria like:
Date
<=20050101
but is working when the criteria looks like:
Date
<=20050101*
have checked the length of the textstring and there are no "hidden" letters
or spaces.
It also looks like <= operand is working fine but when using the = the data
that is =
to the criteria is ignored.

Hopeful for some hints how to go on with this problem

Brgds
