When I try to use a IB_Date without EditMask, I have discovered, that
then the editmask is always !99.99.9999;1
Now I have found the following code in the IBC_Date.imp

procedure TIB_CustomDate.UpdateMask( UnboundMask: string );
begin
if UnboundMask = '' then
UnboundMask := '!99' + DateSeparator + '99' + DateSeparator +
'9999;1; ';
inherited UpdateMask( UnboundMask );
end;

What is the reason, that a empty Editmask is automaticly converted ?
