Why isn't "like" appropriate? Because you can't just make stuff up? "LIKE" is a specific operator for matching strings where "%" can be used in one as a wildcard. It isn't some generic "roughly similar to" DWIM magical operator. Perhaps you should check your documentation? Now, I often regret when I have to learn more about Oracle (because it usually means I've had to try to use Oracle) and I know Oracle does some rather bizarre things. But I'd still be rather surprised to find out Oracle took the string-comparing LIKE and overloaded it for testing if datetimes were "near". - tye In reply to Re^3: DBIx::Simple and Oracle dates (stuff)
