Question : How do I have a field displayed in a report for all data options except one

I am making a past due open so report and the for back orders I have a ship date field for orders that shipped but my ERP system puts the date 1/1/1900 in this field for all lines that have not shipped and the correct date for any line items that have shipped.  What custom formula would I need to not display 1/1/1900 but all other dates?

Answer : How do I have a field displayed in a report for all data options except one

Do you have the CONVERT NULL DATES TO DEFAULT option set?

Open the report
Click FILE --> REPORT OPTIONS
Is the option CONVERT DATABASE VALUES TO DEFAULT checked?

Is the database actually returning that date?

You could also suppress the value with a formula
Right click the field
Click FORMAT FIELD
Click the COMMON TAB
Click the FORMULA BUTTON to the right of suppress
{YourField} = Date(1900,1,1)
