Well I thought it was strange to see the R there. It would be valid syntax if
you had a table named "R" but wished to refer to the table in the query as
"tblDates". Normally, you would probably do that the other way round - a table
named tblDates that you wanted to refer to as R to cut down on typing or as a
second instance of the same table in some self-referencing schemes.
