how to search for notes BETWEEN two dates?

[PaulCWR 0]

I have found in the useful https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/208313828 Evernote help how to search for notes after a certain date: 

created:20151218 will return notes created on or after December 18, 2015.

but does anyone know how to search for notes created after December 18,2015 and BEFORE December 31, 2015?  I have tried various version of AND with no success, and "add search option" enables me to do various types of "BEFORE" but with only "this day", "this month" and "this year as options"...

I would ever so grateful if anyone had found a solution and cared to share it....

 

thanks

For before dates, you have to work with negation

Rephrased as: after December 18, 2015    
                          and exclude after December 31, 2015

created:20151218 -created:20151231

this doesn't work. This search returned nothing. If I used only 'created:' , it returned with some notes.

Please post the exact search you used

My first note may be dated back to 2012.  This is how I did the search, and I thought it should work, yet EN returned nothing.

created:20151218 -created:20151231

I tried this, also did not work

Here's the search I tried. "No notes found"
When there clearly notes created in that range

created:20240325-created:20240327

It could be a typo but you need a space between the two terms

created:20240325 -created:20240327

You can also use the filter menu to filter using the same criteria

You can also use Ai Search for some of these advanced searches.

Something like "All notes created between 1st March 2024 and 27th March 2024".

You can also add "in notebook called XXX" or "tagged XXX".

Boolean search is now available for everybody so you can actually get the same result with 

created:20240325 NOT created:20240327

which is possibly easier for somebody not experienced in the advanced search syntax.
