setting datetime? type field to null

Hi,

I have a problem with setting null to a custom field of type to null. I am using the statment

op.apprDateTime__c=null;

op.apprDateTime__cSpecified=true;

and here, apprDateTime is of type DateTime?

However, it is not getting updated to null.

Does anybody have any idea why this might now work?

Thanks in advance,

Saritha

PS: I have the recommended hotfix (mentioned here) installed.

Have you seen the fieldsToNull parameter in the documentation yet? It works really well.

Ok, I tried the fieldstoNull and it seems to work fine.

But why doesnt setting it directly to null work?

Thanks,

Saritha
