Search a custom module record based on a date range

Search a custom module record based on a date range

Hi ,
I hope you can share some guidance.
I need to look up a record from a custom module based on the Closing Date of a Deal (in the Deals module).
Here’s the context:
1. I have a custom module that stores quarterly values (e.g., rates or thresholds).
2. Each record in that module has a start date and end date.
3. I want to find the record where the Deal’s Closing Date falls between those two dates.
4. Once I find the matching record, I need to pull one or more field values from it and update the Deal.

Could you please help me understand:
How to write this function that searches the custom module using a date range condition?

Thanks so much in advance!

And these are actions done without any expectations :) You must be engaging with a lot of customers and it is highly unlikely that they all are your friends on Facebook or some social channel,

                                                                                                              That would make my day for sure. Zoho Creator is create, but miss data entering as AirTable/Spreadsheet can. Seeing Zoho putting effort in this makes me think maybe one day we could see a similar interface for Zoho Creator spreadsheet reports. B.
