OK, here's the real technical (sort of) reason that this happens:
Date fields are actually numbers, counted from a start point (full numbers
are days and decimals are times) - FoxPro just can't understand that it can
have a blank date, so it adds Zero to the start point (30 Dec 1899 at
midnight)
Solutions - Don't use FoxPro, or work around it's problems with dates.
