If I execute the following statement:

dim defaultDate as Date = Nothing

defaultDate contains the default value of the Date structure

I suspect there is a clean way to retreive this value, like some kind of buitin constant, but i was not able to find it.

    C# has a more “explicit” way of doing that with default(T).
