Query with multiple conditions comparing sheet cells
Hi there,
Thanks in advance for any help,
I've been working with 3 sheets.
Sheet 1
(Random Data)
Sheet 2
(Queried / Filtered Data)
Sheet 3
(Conditions)
In this case, I pull all the data from Sheet 1 to Sheet 2 Using this query: =QUERY(Sheet1!A2:M;" SELECT A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M") which works just fine.
This is there the problem starts, For instance,
- I have 2 specific cells in Sheet3, both are Dates that I use to filter "From and To"
- Column B of Sheet1 is a Text Date '2013-04-11 and such.
- I compare both cells using Value(Sheet1 Cell) which returns in this case: 41375
I came up with this statement:
WHERE value(B) >= value('Sheet3'!K3) AND value(B) <= value('Sheet3'!K4)"
So all together I Have:
=QUERY(Sheet1!A2:M;"SELECT A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M WHER E value(B) >= value('Sheet3'!K3) AND value(B) <= value('Sheet3'!K4)")
- Gsheet reports: error: Invalid query: Query parse error: Encountered " <ID> "value "" at line 1, column 38. Was expecting one of: "(" ... "(" ...
I tried several combinations and sintax delimeters but still same type of problem.
Thank you.

Hi there Hyde,
It doesnt let me use the formula, about a problem with quotes,
please take a look at a dummy live version of the spreadsheet:
