Ok thank you very much, but the suggestion (SQL:when field =
'2006-09-06'::date) does not retrieve any row. It does not retrive any error
too, but the suggestion does not applied to my requisition.

The second suggestion is quite correct but I would like to use the between
expression.

Best regards to both
Ezequias
