Post the SQL query & the DESC of the tables involved here
How can we know what you are doing wrong when you don't show us what you are actually doing?

IF :DATE_TXN = 02 THEN
IF TO_CHAR(:TXN_DATE,'YYYY') = :YEAR_TXN-1 AND TO_CHAR(:TXN_DATE,'MM') >= 11 THEN
IF TO_CHAR(:TXN_DATE,'YYYY') = :YEAR_TXN AND TO_CHAR(:TXN_DATE,'MM') = 1 THEN


the :date_txn is month and the :year_txn is year...
so 02 stand for feb...
and the :year_txn is 2006

Basically, if table column which stores date value is of a DATE datatype, it is quite simple:
SELECT * FROM your_table
WHERE date_column_value BETWEEN TO_DATE('12/2005', 'mm/yyyy')
                            AND TO_DATE('02/2006', 'mm/yyyy');
Code you provided suggests that it is about Forms Builder; is it? What are ":TXN_DATE" and ":YEAR_TXN" fields? Dates? Characters? If it is a character, it seems that this line

IF :DATE_TXN = 02 THEN

won't do much good as 02 equals 2 - if you need 02, you'll have to enclose it into the single quotes: '02'.
