It's okay, it seems that you need to enclose the comparator with single
quotes.....<sigh>

On another note, can ranges be set without based on just one components of a
composite column name?

I have a the Composite below in the previous email and want to return all my
transaction columns for a particular date range:

public Set<TransactionType> findTransactions(String listId, long startTime,
long endTime) {
        DynamicCompositeSerializer ds = new DynamicCompositeSerializer();
        SliceQuery<String, DynamicComposite, String> transQuery =
HFactory.createSliceQuery(getKeyspace(), mStringSerializer, ds,
mStringSerializer);
        transQuery.setKey(listId);
        transQuery.setColumnFamily(CF_TRANSACTIONS);
        DynamicComposite startRange = null;
        DynamicComposite endRange = null;

        if (startTime > 0) {
            mLog.debug("Setting startRange with startTime[" + startTime +
"]");
            startRange = new DynamicComposite("", newTimeUUID(startTime));
        } else {
            mLog.debug("Setting startRange to beginning of time!");
            startRange = new DynamicComposite("", new UUID(0, 0));
        }

        if (startTime > 0 && endTime > 0) {
            mLog.debug("Setting startRange with endTime[" + endTime + "]");
            endRange = new DynamicComposite("", newTimeUUID(endTime));
        } else {
            mLog.debug("Setting endRange to end of time!");
            endRange = new DynamicComposite("", new UUID(Long.MAX_VALUE |
Long.MIN_VALUE, Long.MAX_VALUE | Long.MIN_VALUE));
        }

        mLog.debug("Setting range...");
        transQuery.setRange(startRange, endRange, false, 100000);

        mLog.debug("Executing query...");
        QueryResult<ColumnSlice<DynamicComposite, String>> queryResults =
transQuery.execute();

}

But I'm finding I'm just getting 0 results even if I use the values of
beginning of time ("00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000") and end of time
("ffffffff-ffff-ffff-ffff-ffffffffffff")

I want to slice only across the Time component of the Composite.

Is this possible?
