Thanks, Dale, that helped me track it down. I'd like to clarify, however,
that the invoice doesn't have to overlap, simply has to be a date greater
than the date I'm looking for. In this particular case what caused it was a
typo when entering his invoice for last December, accidentally set to
12/1/97, instead of 12/1/96. As soon as I changed it to 96, I could create
the invoice.
