I know you can search for "yesterday" / "last week" but what if tasks have dates before that?

(I'm trying to see ALL tasks that have dates before today)

 

I've tried searching for:

• "before today"
• "overdue"
• "date:*"

and many other terms, with no success...

 

Thanks in advance!

  "Last Week"

  "Last Month"

  "Yesterday"

  only those so far avail I think...

  Hi Dan,

  You can search for a range of dates separated by a hyphen:

  January 1 - yesterday 

  There's a whole bunch you can try... but the hyphen is the trick

  Ahh excellent, thanks Frank - that's exactly what I was looking for!

  This query is what solved my problem:
  1/1/1900 - yesterday

  Seems, that something is broken here

  1. `1/1/1900 - this month` doesn't match today, while matches some old dates; `1/1/1900 - today` - matches today

  2. `1/1/1900 - this sunday` & `1/1/1900 - this saturday` doesn't match date of this saturday, while `this saturday` does

  3. `this monday - this sunday` doesn't match today

  3. `1/1/1900 - next week` & `1/1/1900 - this week` doesn't match anything in my notes, while `this week` does
