I have the following code in my Winforms OnLoad event: dtpStartDateFilter.Value = DateTime.MinValue; dtpStartDateFilter

I have the following code in my Winforms OnLoad event:

dtpStartDateFilter.Value = DateTime.MinValue;

dtpStartDateFilter is a standard WinForms date time picker. When my form loads it encounters the previously entered code line and then exits (with WinForms eating the exception so I have no idea what it is).

What’s wrong with doing this?

    DateTimePicker.MinimumDateTime > DateTime.MinValue

    DateTime.MnValue

    The value of this constant is equivalent to 00:00:00.0000000, January
    1, 0001.

    DateTimePicker.MinimumDateTime

    The minimum date and time that can be selected in the control. The
    default is 1/1/1753 00:00:00.
