I was published this problem over 10 forums and no one know what the solution for that. i try to make some application that deal with billboards and advertising. When i want to make order for some billboard i need to fillup the billboard number (wich his number is string and not integer) and i need to choose between 2 dates when the billboard is up (for example 01.08.2009 dd;mm;yyyy) for 14 days (until 14.08.2009). This is the first section! If i want to make new order and i choose the same billboard number and the same dates the application need NOT to let me doing the order by messageBox "The billboard is not availble". i was wrote some code and the problem is: i was ordered sign number 23 (for example) between the dates 1.8.2009 - 14.8.2009, then i was try to order the same sign number between 28.7.2009 - 12.8.2009, the application DONT ACCEPT THE ORDER cause the dates was blocked. but then i make order with the same sign number between 5.8.2009 - 13.8.2209 then the application Accept the order.....????????? the code is:

I think you want to try a query like this

SELECT Count(*) FROM Orders 
WHERE signNumber = ? 
(AND ? BETWEEN fromdate and todate 
Or ? BETWEEN fromdate AND todate)

You need to use the OR condition or else both conditions have to be met when you want it to pull records if either condition is met.
