set a datetimepicker.value to nothing?

[Maria]

I've tried to search for a way to set a datetimepicker.value to nothing. I
would like it to display nothing until the user select a value.. I know you
can use a checkbox to disable the control - but I would like it to display
nothing instead..

Is this possible?

That's not supported by the standard datetimepicker control. Utilizing the
datetimepicker's checkbox is the preferred way. For example, Outlook
Express uses datetimepickers with checkboxes in its search dialog. I
remember that I have read reports that the datetimerpicker's checkbox is
"buggy", so take care when using it.

I doubt that. Under some circumstances, the checkbox is shown in checked
state, but the 'Checked' property returns 'False', which is obviously a bug.

OK - I think I have to buy a datetimepicker with this functionality then..

Thanks!!
