The solution or workaround is to use two variables to accomplish the goal, here is an example.
DateTime? dt1;
DateTime dt2;
dt1 = DateTime.TryParse("12/12/2010", out dt2) ? dt2 : (DateTime?)null;

The storage engine itself is solid and it works with the minimal functionalities that it currently has. As a...
