raddatetimepicker not working after upgrading to asp .net ajax

[Bandana]

I am in the process of upgrading the radcontrols to asp .net ajax. 
The raddatetimepicker is causing problems with this.
the error i get is 
Value of '1/1/0001 12:00:00 AM' is not valid for 'SelectedDate'. 'SelectedDate' should be between 'MinDate' and 'MaxDate'.
Parameter name: SelectedDate

i have three options to show a document
1) show document
2) hide document
3) show for date range (this one take a show start and show end date)

for the first two options we are saving null in the database and when this value is returned it throws the error mentioned above. it works fine for the third option. 

any ideas as to how to return a null value for a raddatetimepicker when the value in the database is null??

Thanks!

Hi Bandana,

Consider passing the selected date from your database to the date picker using its DbSelectedDate property (which accepts null values). See this online demo for details.

I am using DbSelectedDate which is why i am confused now.

Hello Bandana,

If using DbSelectedDate the application should not throw an exception if the new value is null or DBNull. Setting a null value should internally revert the SelectedDate to the null value, i.e. the input value will be empty.
