I need to be able to search date fields for the current (today's) date and also be able to tell if there is no date (the field is blank). A little help would be appreciated. Thanks

I am using perform find[request] and manually entering the find.

Ken and Lee where are you...

Insert Calculated Result[datefield, Status(CurrentDate)] will give you today's date on a layout that has datefield on it. And "=" will give you records where datefield is empty. Just script multiple find requests, one for each criterion.

to find records with no dates, perform your find using the equal only sign "=" (no quotes) only in the date field.

You should be able to find your date manually, or any variation to it such as greater than, less than, equal to (more or less than), by using the date field and the appropriate symbol with it (i.e. >8/8/2003) see the pull down menu to the left that is titled Symbol (it tells you what to expect too).

If you want to do the find with a script, perform it manually, and then create your script immediately.
