<p class="MsoPlainText">I can't find any reference that tells me how to search a date range. The Help page says unhelpfully "FD - Filing date - Contains the date the application was filed," but not the format for the number that might help for searching. The
regex search instructions are only for the mark field. I can't find anything about the use of the greater than or lesser than symbols or other ways to give a date range. Does anyone have any hints? If it helps, I'm trying to find applications that were filed
before a particular date.<o:p></o:p></p>
