Instead of Now() can't you use Date()

Date :]

Example:

<%

Response.Write "Now returns " & Now & "<br>"
Response.Write "Date returns " & Date & "<br>"
Response.Write "Time returns " & Time

%>

You should use DateDiff for date comparisons like this anyway. Using
DateDiff, it wouldn't matter if the time is in one of your dates if you're
comparing by calendar dates.
