Restricting records on a date field

I have a query which has a DateTerminated field (date format) and I would like to restrict the records to show all employees that are not terminated before a certain time.

Right now if I put "Is Null" in the criteria line, it gives all employees who are not terminated.

If I combine the criteria with < 01/01/2000, then I only get the records of the terminated employees after this date.

I need to show both. Should I first convert this date field to a number field and then use the greater than?

Any help would be appreciated as this query and its criteria will be used in a yearly scheduling form, so I need the criteria to always show the non-terminated or active employees for the base year.

Thank you.
 
is null or >01/01/2000 should work.

Regards
Warwick
