Maybe I'm dim or just past it!, but despite looking here and elsewhere, I am utterly confused how one searches for files modified between two dates. I have succeeded on a sole date but not for a range.
Will some soul give me it step by step please:)
Win7 is definitely a steep/precipitous leaning curve; at least until I can get a Dummies or similar.
This help,
Search in Windows 7

You can't be past it if you can come up with a Topic title like "I'm lost searching" The best I have seen for sometime. Or have I a strange sense of word use?
datemodified:"01-01-2009" .. "31-12-2009"
This will give you all files which have been modified in 2009.
Here are a few links to help you with search in Windows 7 and learning the new features / changes.

^Nice set of tutorials there Cassie - thanks!
^Yes indeed - although I'm loving Windows 7
Thanks to all for the advice. The nitty-gritty of my problem was in the formatting of a search involving a date range. I had been omitting the " marks around the dates, as per pezzovante's post.
You might also want to look at a tutorial I wrote way back when for Vista, Advanced Searches.
