I want to exclude in my query any record with a date prior to the current month. I used [<datepart(&quot;m&quot;, date())] which worked fine for all previous months until I hit January. I suppose when Dec (ie 12) is compared to Jan (01) my statement does not work anymore. Any ideas? Thanks.

You can either build the date for the first of the month using DateSerial() and compare to your date or use the Format(datefield,&quot;yyyymm&quot;) function on your date and Now() and then compare the results.

use DateDiff :

datediff(&quot;m&quot;,date1,date2)=0 AND datediff(&quot;yyyy&quot;,date1,date2) = 0

returns records which have the same month and year value
