Exclamation passing variable from bash to perl from bash script

Hi All,
I need to pass a variable to perl script from bash script, where in perl i am using if condition. Here is the cmd what i am using in perl
Code:
FROM_DATE="06/05/2008"
TO_DATE="07/05/2008"

"perl -ne ' print if ( $_ >="$FROM_DATE" && $_ <= "$TO_DATE" ) ' filename"
filename has following data :-
Code:
06/05/2008-07:59
06/05/2008-07:59
06/05/2008-07:59
06/05/2008-07:59
06/05/2008-07:59
07/05/2008-07:59
07/05/2008-07:59
07/05/2008-07:59
07/05/2008-07:59
07/05/2008-07:59:server5:DISK
08/05/2008-07:59:server1:DISK
08/05/2008-07:59:server2:DISK
08/05/2008-07:59:server3:DISK
08/05/2008-07:59:server4:DISK
08/05/2008-07:59:server5:DISK
if we hard code the values of FROM_DATE and TO_DATE it is working.I feel what to know why it is not working When i passing it as variable.
it will be great if some one telle me How to pass the variable to perl properly.
i am new to perl world.
Thanks
Arsidh
