I'm have a file with multiple date fields.
When I'm inserting a record, by default, SQL Server set a default date. I don't want it, I want those fields to stay blank.

how can I do it ?

Thanks

you can try to insert NULL as value.

Either you have a default defined on your column, or your application is submitting a default date (likely "0") without your knowledge.

Wow, thank you for your help. My SP was assigning blank, not null. It's working fine now.


Thanks
