Dear all,

I hope this message finds you enjoying your day. I'm having some trouble
comparing time with the now() function.

Normally, if I type in

=9:00 AM 10:00 AM

The result will be "false." This is the type of comparison that I want.

However, it seems as though comparing time produced by the now() function
works a bit differently. Can somebody explain how to compare time produced
by the now() function?

Thanks and have a nice day.

Hi robert -

I think the problem is that NOW() gives the following result:
8/30/2007 10:31:55 AM (example)

Try TIME() instead ....

ray

Now function is the number of days from 1/1/1900 which is alwasy greater than
one. 1/2/1900 - 1/1/1900 = 1.. Time is a fraction of a day always less than
one where 0 is midnight. 8 hours is equal to 8/24.
