Data Reports and functions

I am having trouble with the data reports designer in VB6 again! I have an access data base, and I am using the dataenvironment. I want the user to be able to enter in a datetime (3/3/1999 10:40 am) into a text box, and pass the parameter to a data report...I am using the system date to check it now. Basically I want a date range, and I want the user to be able to enter one or more datetime to be specified.Here is the code:
SELECT Distinct tblDailyWorksheet.Activity, tblDailyWorksheet.ArrivalNumber, tblDailyWorksheet.ArrivalTo, tblDailyWorksheet.DepartureFrom, tblDailyWorksheet.Invoiced, tblDailyWorksheet.MovementDateTime, tblDailyWorksheet.MovementType, tblCustomer.Province, tblInvoice.Berth, tblVesselMaster.VesselName FROM tblCustomer, tblInvoice, tblVesselMaster, tblDailyWorksheet WHERE tblCustomer.CustomerNumber = tblInvoice.CustomerNumber AND tblCustomer.CustomerNumber = tblVesselMaster.CustomerNumber AND tblDailyWorksheet.SpecialInstruction, tblCustomer.Address, tblCustomer.City, tblCustomer.Customer, tblCustomer.PostalCode, tblVesselMaster.VesselNumber = tblDailyWorksheet.VesselNumber AND tblDailyWorkSheet.MovementDateTime BETWEEN now() AND (tblDailyWorkSheet.MovementDateTime=?)

However all the records in the tables come up, it is not meeting the between criteria. How do I restrict the queries in a manner that will work?
Neither date() nor now() will work...it doesn't seem to be accepting any functions.

you can modify the CommandText property of the Command object in your Data environment before executing the Data report as in:
DataEnvironment1.Commands(1).CommandText = "select Name, vorname, strasse, ort from lahadr where name like 'meier%'"
DataReport1.Show


This can be easily adopted to your needs. Simply modify the BETWEEN clause.
It might be more elegant to use a parametrized query, but the technique is the same.

Now() and Date() function depend on your system setting. That is dd/mm/yy or mm/dd/yy. There is a good way to work with day and time in Access is using date time with format #mm/dd/yy#. That format is not depend on your system setting.
