I have this on my db.

mysql> select * from rates_dhl where weight_kg = "6" between range and
Weight_KG;
+----+-------+-----------+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+
| id | range | Weight_KG | Zone_A | Zone_B | Zone_C | Zone_D | Zone_E
| Zone_F | Zone_G | Zone_H |
+----+-------+-----------+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+
|  1 | .000  | .5        | 9.45   | 12.29  | 14.18  | 15.12  | 16.59 
| 18.48  | 21.32  | 23.63  |
+----+-------+-----------+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+--------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

When i did try the between, even when i try to change the weight_kg to
any number, it only display the first entry.
