Hi ..I have done search but cannot find situation that fits.
I need to do a search or select if you will on a table that contains over 150,000 records. Within this table there are 2 columns I am interested in. One is low_number and other is high_number. I need to find the record(s) that these two columns are in range of a number passed to it through the select statement.
Example:
I want to do a search for all records that the number 301 falls between the low_number and high_number in that same, particular record.
I have in the column low_number of a record the number 280 and in the high_number column I have the number 310. I am doing a search for all the records that the number 301 will be in range of for the columns low_number and high_number in each particular record.
Since I have passed the number 301 to the select statment. It should return to me the record number that has the values for the low_number at 280 and high_number 310.
I have tried to use RANGE and BETWEEN but they also return records out of range.
Can anyone point me in right direction?
Any help much appreciated.
