Thanks for the reply. I'm using 8.0.3. I'm using
something similiar to the example you gave. My
postgresql install is on offline developement box and
I would have to type it all out longhand.

Shouldn't >= also return Carols records since she
contains records GREATER THAN 10000? This is the
problem I'm having, there's no errors, just no records
matching the > (gt) part. Only exact matches.

How about using > (gt) instead of >= (gte)?

It doesn't return any records right? Shouldn't it
match Carols also since sal_emp is _int?
