This character format of data doesn't even allow a correct sorting, so forget to use a IN RANGE option in your SELECT statement. I'm afraidthat you will be required tofilterthe data read by aSELECT without date criteria.
Some (bad) solutions :
- Append a true DATS field to the table, so your upload will give a null/initial value and a small report may be required to update record with this value. Most current reports will just ignore the new field.
- Create a calendar table with every couple of value DATS/DD.MM.YYYY and use in a JOIN
Another (good) solution
- Rewrite the upload and dispatch program to use a correct datbase table format...
