problem with count date between

Hi there
i m newbie to this sql report thing and would like to ask a simple question regarding date
I m trying to Count the no. of Date that are register after 1May 2006 from the table unfortunately the comparision date is not as i was expected since when i did it it give me error on syntax
here is what i ve wrote

=Count(Fields!Register.Value, "PatientDataSet_Patient" >= DateSerial(2006,05,01))
I ve try to replace Count with CountRows and still give me error
so how do u deal with date in this sceanario

many thanks
sun

Use an IIF to return a 0 or 1 depending on your condition and then throw a SUM around it at the footer.
