I'm trying to create an NSPredicate to find 'projects' that contain 'sessions' within a certain date range. I tried this at first:

[NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"ANY sessions.date BETWEEN {$STARTDATE, $ENDDATE}"];

But I get an exception:

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason:
   'to-many key not allowed here'

It seems BETWEEN does not work with ANY in this way. I'm also limited in use of () and AND clauses meaning I can't use something like:

[NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"ANY (sessions.date > $STARTDATE && sessions.date < $ENDDATE)"];

If I try that I get a parse error.

How can I do this?

Thanks

UPDATE: Note that this:

[NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"ANY sessions.date > $STARTDATE && ANY sessions.date < $ENDDATE"];

Is incorrect because it returns a project where there is a session greater than the start date and another session less than the end date but no session in between.
