Thanks Nello and Patrick
I was not sure if an empty date field was null or something else.
When my
 "select * from dockets where mydate = null"
didn't work I was concerned more with the "null" than the "="  Doh! (as they
say).

Thank you for your gracious "I'm sure I am missing something in your
question"!
