Extracting Date Range

[Brewski]

I have a database with hourly temperature values that I'm trying to extract a range of data "between" to dates. The data file looks like:
Date Time Temp
01-Jan-02 0:00 29.9
01-Jan-02 1:00 30.3
01-Jan-02 2:00 29.9
01-Jan-02 3:00 29.9

I'm trying to use the Advanced Filter with the following Criteria range:

Date Time Temp
>=37319 (= 3/4/02)
<=37325 (= 3/10/02)

I works if I reverse this and "exclude" data between the two dates or only search in one direction.

What am I doing wrong? I'd like to eventually create a VBA so the user simply enters two date to extract all the data "between" the two timepoints.

Thanks in advance.

Date Time Temp Date Date Time Temp
01-Jan-02 5:00 29-Jan-00 >=37316 <=37325
05-Mar-02 6:00 30-Jan-00
06-Mar-02 7:00 29-Jan-00 Date Time Temp
15-Mar-02 8:00 29-Jan-00 05-Mar-02 6:00 30-Jan-00
06-Mar-02 7:00 29-Jan-00


The Data Filter works OK.
In the criteria use the Heading Date 2 times
1. start =">="&37316
2. end ="<="&37325

I am not sure what date system you are using;
I revised the sample and the criteria dates.

It works!! Thanks, I owe you a beer.

I was thinking about duplicating the Date column, but just didn't try it.

Cheers,

You could have used a vertically-oriented, 2-cell computed criteria with the 1st cell left intentially blank and the 2nd cell containing the formula...

=AND(Date>="3/4/02"+0,Date<="3/10/02"+0)
