how to check that a var type date is initialized ??

[François]

Let's suppose a declaration like this

1. Set the static value

Call LastInputDate(#08/15/2005#)

2. Display the static value
MsgBox(LastInputDate)

Function LastInputDate (Optional dDate as date) as date
Static dLastDate as Date

If IsEmpty(dDate) then
LastInputDate = dLAstDate
Else
dLastDate = dDate
End Function.


This is never working since dDate contains allways "12:00:00 Am". How to
solve this ?
