I have a date field in my database that is default 01/01/0001. When Crystal reads that field it is returning 1/1/2001. Any ideas on how to correct that?
 
Consider sharing the type of database, ODBC connection used, and how you've verified what's stored in the database and in CR.

It may be that the database is NOT storing it that way, SmallDateTime cannot go back that far...a DateTime can.

I am using Crystal Reports 9.0 and a Client Access ODBC Driver Version 4, release 4 for a DB2 envornoment.

The date came across fine in CR 8.5 - now that I upgraded to 9 it is a problem. I assume it is something in the default settings on 9.0,
