Hi,

the execution is currently not the problem, because the number of records is
too small.

I have the impression that the first query looks for DATUM >= x and the
second one for DATUM <= y and finally delivers the number of records that is
included in both result sets.

My main interesst is to understand if I can improve my query or have to
accept it. In the second case I will try to run as many queries as possible
without dateranges.

Niko

Hmm, what is the execution time for both queries?

42 isn't a lot. This might also include accessing system tables ...
