How do I make this work? My code is:

Selection.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=">=WBDate", Operator:=xlAnd, _
Criteria2:="<=WEDate"

WBDate is a cell that contains a beginning date
WEDate is a cell that contains an ending date
Both cells are vlookups and are formated as dates
AutoFilter Field 1 is the 1st column in my data and contains only dates

The code seems to work, except it says there's no records in my data that are between the two date ranges. That's not true. Can you not use a cell name as criteria in AutoFilter?

You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
You can, just not inside the quotes as you are currently using it.

This should work if the cells are dimmed as ranges in the macro
Code:
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=">=" & WBDate, Operator:=xlAnd, _
Criteria2:="<=" & WEDate

If you are referring to named ranges on the worksheet (accessed from Insert\Name\Define), try:
Code:
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=">=" & Range("WBDate").Value, Operator:=xlAnd, _
Criteria2:="<=" & Range("WEDate").Value
