Query not returning Data

[russbucket]

Sorry about double post, I am having problems with my ISP.

I have the following query:

SELECT * 
FROM Sight_Hearing_Help
WHERE 'type_help' = "Eye Exam & Glasses"
AND 'board_action_date' BETWEEN "07-01-2007" AND "12-31-2007"
LIMIT 0 , 60;

Returns empty row every time. The board_action_date is a varchar field. Not
a date field. I have also tried using form 2007-07-01.

Additional information:
  SUSE 10.2, MySQL 5.0.26-14 

Any help would be appreciated!
