Hi - I'm trying to figure out how to filter my Outlook contacts to show only
those contacts that have a birthday next month. If I filter based on the
"birthday" field and then select "next month", nothing shows up. But if I
change their birthday to next month of this year, then they'll show up. How
that's even possible is beyond me.

So what filter should I try to show only those contacts that have a birthday
next month without changing their birthyear to 2004? I would think it's a sql
query.

I'm using Outlook 2003 sp1 on Windows XP sp2.

Thanks,
Doug

Such a filter is not possible in Outlook without adding and populating a
field that would contain the month information to run the query against.
