For example, >5000 finds all records where the field value is more than 5,000. (Note: Don’t enter commas in numeric queries.) >= Greater than or equal to; find numbers or dates that are greater than or equal to the specified value. < Less than; find numbers or dates that are less than or equal to the specified value. For example, <#05/27/2005# retrieves all records with a date value less than May 27, 2005.
