Hi Peter

Try this one: Myproperty.Value = CTOT("")



>I have a property which holds a date-time value. I want it to be empty at startup so that I can ompare it to datetime(). Thus is important that it have a date-time type value.
>
>In code I can write ltSample = datetime({//:} and ltSample will have an empty value. But if I put that string {//:} as an initial value for a property, VFP immediately converts it to {} and the actual value seems to ba n empty date.
