You can't get it to show a blank date. The way the date picker works is to
show a Null date by unchecking a check box. By default, this checkbox
doesn't show, but you can set the CheckBox property to True to allow it to
accept Null values and, therefore, show the checkbox.
If that doesn't seem like the best UI idea you've ever heard of, well, I
agree with you. But that's the way you have to do things unless you want to
either write your own date picker control or buy a 3rd party product that
does this differently.
