Hi,
Im having a bit of difficulty working out how to do the following.
method ( paramType? param1, DateTime? requiredByDate , paramType? param3)
I have a row property which I need to pass to this method, this has a
property of IsNull which is a boolean, so I tried to do the following
method ( param1,
row.IsRequiredByDateNull() ? null, row.RequiredByDate,
param3 )
This fails on compile because it cant cast from a null to a DateTime.
How can i construct this ?

Don't cast to DateTime - cast to DateTime? (with the question mark).
Then it should be fine.

row.IsRequiredByDateNull() ? null : row.RequiredByDate;

I once had the same problem.
I can't check it with a compiler right now, but the solution is
something like this:
row.IsRequiredByDateNull() ? (DateTime?)null : row.RequiredByDate;
yes, your absolutely correct. In fact Jon Skeet came up with the same
solution. For some reason , I never thought of casting to a nullable type.
DOH!
Thanks for your help.
