The DateTime data type is a value type and is a structure. That means that
its' value cannot be null. It is possible that you are receiving some forms
that have been sent by bots (automated processes, such as Spam-bots), and
that these bots are not supplying a DateTime. Since the value of a DateTime
is in Ticks past 1/1/0001, a null value would be equivalent to 0 ticks.

The DateTimePicker is always initialized to Today + 1 Day. For some
strange
reason we have seen some incidents where the Saved date is 1/1/0001
We cannot reproduce as this is totally random.

Are there any bugs/issues with this control?
