what are the types of myDate and GetDateFromDll? TDateTime?
normally you don't get an exception if you assign a TDateTime
value (even if it's zero). I just tried this:
procedure test;
var mydate:TDateTime;
begin
mydate:=0.0;
end;
and it doesn't raise an exception.
What you are describing sounds like something that happens
when you try to convert a String to a TDate via StrToDate
or something like that.
Am I missing something?
