Hi,



More questions about null values...



I use a datepicker to display a date. I have to use the replacement value trick (1800-1-1) in order to save a NULL value when there is no date. No problems here...



How can I show this field in a listview without showing the value 1800-1-1 to the user?



Regards,

Edyhy,

Out of curiosity, why would you assign the displayvalue property to String.Empty as opposed to "" (which is what I would have done and I think a more C# standard way to do it).  I'm just curious if there is an advantage to using the Empty static method of the .Net string class?

I'm also assuming there the C# string type must also have a string.Empty() counterpart (which I might have favored because I tend to use the C# types over the .Net types in my own coding).

Hi William,

It is just for readability of the code, I rather see String.Empty than '' or "", in VFP you could use '', "", []
