Actually, I get 12/30/1899.
That date seems pretty strange. If they are going to use the end of December, why not the 31st instead of the 30th?

I think I am going to have to use parameters for everything else, except when my DataRow is DbNull, then I hardcode

myDate = {}

into the command string (I'm not getting any eligant coding awards for this)
Thanks for the reply

I hope against hope that MS comes to their senses and adds an empty date in Whidbey. No doubt you've noticed Fox empty dates come in as 01/01/1899 or something equally useful.
