Override null in the DatePicker field in Grid

[Kavitha]

I have a requirement where the application has to allow the users to not enter or select any date in the DatePicker control that is present in the grid. If no date is selected the value goes back to the database as null and also shows up as null in the grid.I do not want null to show up in the grid, is there a way to override the null value with something more meaningful like 'TBD' or just leave it empty and not display anything in that field.

Hello Kavitha,

You need to use a template (depending on your binding) which checks if the value is null - display "TBD" else display the actual value.
