Yes, changing the time comparison functions to refer to XML Query instead of XML Schema does not solve all the problems in my email. It solves one of them (the need to specify time zones for all times). But it doesn't solve the second problem (the problems that arise when midnight GMT falls during normal business hours, as it does in many parts of the world). Solving that problem will require an additional change, such as adding the time-in-range function. Thanks again for your help, Steve Hanna
