  Function definition: (Copy & paste into FileMaker's Edit Custom Function window)

Let( [startdate = Date ( Month ( theDate ) - 1 ; 1 ; Year ( theDate ) ); enddate = Date ( Month ( theDate ) ; 0 ; Year ( theDate ) )]; startdate & "..." & enddate ) Click to copy

This little function will generate a search string that runs from first to last day of the previous month based on the input value in "theDate". Not really brilliant but very handy...
