CAML Query help using recursiveall and date filter together

Question

Hello,
Please let me know what is wrong with the query below,
<View Scope='RecursiveAll'>
<Query>
<Where>
<Leq>
<FieldRef Name='Modified'/>
<Value Type='DateTime' IncludeTimeValue='FALSE'>date value</Value>
</Leq>
</Where>
</Query>
</View>
Above query returns zero items, it should return 3 items in my current scenario.
If I do just the folllowing, three items are returned
<View Scope='RecursiveAll'>
<Query>
</Query>
</View>
I need date filter to work with recursiveall . Not sure what is wrong with the query

Hi,
Per my understanding, you might want to use “RecursiveAll” with date filter in your CAML query statement.
I suggest you take the code demo below which writes in Server Object Model for a try in your environment to see if it can work for you:
using (SPSite oSiteCollection = new SPSite("http://yoursite"))
using (SPWeb web = oSiteCollection.RootWeb)
SPList list = web.Lists["List1"];
SPQuery qry = new SPQuery();
qry.Query =
@" <Where>
<And>
<Leq>
<FieldRef Name='Modified' />
<Value Type='DateTime'>2015-03-07T12:00:00Z</Value>
</Leq>
<Eq>
<FieldRef Name='FSObjType' />
<Value Type='Integer'>0</Value>
</Eq>
</And>
</Where>";
qry.ViewFields = @"<FieldRef Name='Title' />";
qry.ViewAttributes = "Scope='RecursiveAll'";
SPListItemCollection items = list.GetItems(qry);
foreach (SPListItem item in items)
Console.WriteLine(item["Title"]);
