Programatically clear datepicker?

Question

Frankly, am embarrassed that I can't figure out something so basic. I want to clear selected dates in two Lightswitch datepicker controls. I can set dates (me.datepickername = date.today, etc.) but can't get the darn thing to clear. What's the code (vb or c#) to make this happen? Thanks.

Answer 1

if they are allowed to be null then me.datepickername = null

If they are not allowed to be null then you are stuck

Answer 2

Thanks, Ot1s. I had previously tried that but Null constant isn't allowed by vb code editor and Dbnull.value generates error: can't be converted to type Date.

Answer 3

Me.DateProperty = Nothing

Just make sure that the date property isn't required otherwise lightswitch will convert Nothing to "1/1/001" date.
