Here is some more information: When the form is first loaded the date picker xml looks like this:  "<my:ToDt xmlns:my=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003/myXSD/2007-11-16T17:42:12\" xmlns:xsi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\" ...

Thanks for your help.  I am working with a DB.  A no value setfield action and/or using empty.string still display the red asterisk with screen tip.  This is not preventing my form from working correctly, however, when the form is loaded this date picker is blank and it does not display the red asterisk.  Same as if I were to ...

Setting it to null still exhibits the same behavior.

Using jscript I remove the xsi:nil attribute and set the text value of a date picker to “”.  A red asterisk is displayed in the control screen tip stating “Only date allowed: (example: 2001-03-14)”.  How can I prevent this from happening?  Thanks,  Brian  

Thanks Greg - I actually looked at and used your source code demostrating GetNamedNodeProperty.  I then started using the OnContextChange event.  Does anyone know of a way to determine if the node's parent is the table (ie date picker in the row gets clicked). Brian

Is there a way to do this?  I notice that when the user changes rows in a master table that row becomes highlighted (if using a color scheme).  I would like to receive notice of this type of change so I can perform so other tasks via code.  Brian
