Sorry, I forgot it. I have replied it in the other message.
I am not casting dates to integer. I am casting float to integer, then I sum the date and the integer and I get a date.
In any case, as I replied in the other post, the problem is in the BETWEEN because using >= and <=, it works fine.
Thank you
