Nullify Textbox

Hi!, I have the following problem: I work with a form with textboxes; sometimes I need to delete the content of a textbox, for then save the values of that fields as null. For that I use:

_setValue(_textbox("box1"), "");

With this, I can see, visually, that the textbox is set to empty. But when I save the record, is saved with the previous value of the field. If I do the same thing manually, is working fine. I dont know why is not working with the script.

I also try with:
_setValue(_textbox("box1"), " ");

That is working for textboxes used for strings, but not when the textboxes are used for dates (because a validation of the system dont allow the save an space in a date field).

There is any other way to set the value of a textbox as empty?

Thanks,

MagUi

    I just find a way to handle this. I try using unicord chart, passing the value for carriage return:

    _setValue(_textbox("box1"), "\u000D");

    Whit this I avoid the problem mentioned. :)
