datetime data type

I'm having problems with the datetime data type in my database. In one of my tables, I have a field called 'order_ShipDate' which has a data type of 'datetime' and the default is set to '[NULL]'.

I am trying to set up a similar field in a different table called 'orderSKU_ShipDate', but when I set the data type as 'datetime' and the default as '[NULL]', it automatically changes the default to '0000-00-00 00:00:00'.

How do I stop this happening? You obviously can just have a default of [NULL] but it isn't letting me when I create a new field. I'm using the MySQL Control Center to administer my database.

Kind regards
