I had actually done that, but copied the contents of an earlier cell?
But, it actually would only be an issue if it was exactly 5/1/2011 at 
exactly midnight, since even one second after that would be 
greater than. If comparing to a cell with a date value, it might have 
the zero time value, so definitately the >= should be used.
