Invalid Operand for Operator: =

I'm querying a Mas90 db via ADO in Access.
The following SQL gives me the error "Invalid Operand for Operator: ="
"SELECT * from GL_DetailPostin g where PostingDate >= '#01/01/2004#'"

These other queries work just fine, and they return valid data in the
PostingDate field:
"SELECT * from GL_DetailPostin g"
"SELECT * from GL_DetailPostin g order by PostingDate DESC"

Any ideas where I am going wrong? I've tried just about every syntax I
could think of for the date, but no luck.

Dates are delimited with #. You have both # and single quotes. Lose the
latter.

Hi All, I am trying to undestand "Type Conversions" from K&R book.I am not able to understand the bellow mentioned text "Conversion rules are more complicated when unsigned operands are involved. The problem is that comparisons between signed and unsigned values are machine- dependent, because they depend on the sizes of the various integer types. For example, suppose that int is 16 bits

I need the quantity entered in a field to be <= a certain quantity. I've opened the field properties and entered the following under the "Validation Rule". <= ( sum ( ( ! ) Where ( ( ! = ) AND ( ! = ) AND ( ! = "Received" Or "Shipped" Or "Scrapped" ) ) ) ) I get the error message: "The expression you entered contains invalid syntax." "You may have entered an operand without an operator." Any ideas or additional info needed?

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
