Hi Rony,

This behavior is expected when no value has been assigned to the date time field. In this case, the datetime object is initialized to its min value which is 1/1/1. What you need to do, in order to display the column data as empty when there is no datetime value in the field, is to explicitly assign to the latter a null value. For example, if you are returning a custom collection from the web service, you should make the datetime property of the custom object a Nullable type and then explicitly assign a value of null to it when your business logic requires that.

I hope this information helps.

All the best,
