To retrieve records that were entered before March 1, 2008, you would use the less than operator. The correct comparison operator for your question would be:

< March 1, 2008

If you want to include records entered on March 1, 2008, as well, you would use:

<= March 1, 2008

So, the appropriate queries would be either:

  1. < March 1, 2008 (for records entered strictly before March 1, 2008)
  2. <= March 1, 2008 (for records entered on or before March 1, 2008)

Based on your responses, the correct answer is:

< March 1, 2008
