  Mike: No luck with that either. Also tried to use Datenum 
  but that doesn't work either.What I am trying to backtest are Buys 
  and Sells, but only if they occur (for example) in 1998.This is 
  achieved without problem using the range control, but I can't get it to 
  work using a date function in the afl.Keith--- In <A
