<<<Opps, now I see what you are getting at. In my EQR example the Ex date is June 16 and the record date is June 20>>>

Now you get it. If I were to buy EQR on June 15 and sell in on June 16 I would still become the shareholder of record on June 20 and thus receive the dividend payment on July 14. Simple isn't it? NOT! But that is how it works.
