I was having the same issue this morning  It appears that for a DATE or DATETIME field  an empty value cannot be inserted  I got around this by first checking for an empty value   mydate       and if it was empty setting mydate    NULL  before insert   The DATE and DATETIME fields don t behave in the same way as VARCHAR fields
