I've read a long discourse which details a problem similar to mine but
I'm still confused.
Given: a date field in my table and on a form. When the record is
first created, the date field is Null (correct?) or is it Empty?
In any event, if a user enters a date in the field (on the form) and
then determines that there should be no date (because the date really
was for an adjacent record or somesuch), attempting to 'clear' the date
(by entering the SPACE bar, for example) results in an error message:
"Idiot, you have to enter something in the date format "nn/nn/nnnn".
There is no 'correct' date to enter since there is no date (a check
hasn't been received yet, for example) so forcing 'some' date into the
field doesn't work.
I would like to be able to set a Double-click event that would re-set
the field to Empty or Null.
