Problem with DSum

[Keri]

Hi I am currenlty working on a report to show the costs of usage for a cars.
I have split up into quarters but the following code is not returning any
information. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Any asstiance would be
helpful.

=DSum("[Total Costs]","tblMileage Costs","[Car Tag Number] = 1234" and
[Begin Date] between #10/1/2007# and #12/31/2007#")

Take the quotes out after 1234
=DSum("[Total Costs]","tblMileage Costs","[Car Tag Number] = 1234 And [Begin
Date] Between #10/1/2007# And #12/31/2007#")

Hi I have taken the qutos out of the 1234 and I'm getting an error message on
the report. I also tried "1234" and '1234' both I did not get any
information returned when I did that. Are there any ideas that I might try.
Thanks,
Keri

I'm still not sure what I'm doing wrong. I've tried re writing the DSum
function I still unable to get it to work. Please some further assitance
would be helpful.
