Searching a base which has a field zip code for example

[Matteo_Pota]

Greetings! what is most efficient way to query a base for zip codes >= 12499 and <=14999 for example? Thanks

Make sure that your zip code field is set to be a number field (instead of a text field).

Then, you can use the “Filter” button in the toolbar to create 2 filter criteria.

Filter #1:
Zip Code >= 12499

Filter #2:
AND Zip Code <=14999

Hope this helps! If this answers your question, could you please mark this comment as the solution to your question? This will help other people who have a similar question. :slightly_smiling_face:

Thank you so much for your response. My zip code field is currently a single line text…can I change it to a number field as you suggest without losing data? I have 2652 records?

[ScottWorld]

Yes, you can change it without losing data.

Choose integer for the formatting.
