MemoryFormat (Property) In french: FormatMémorisé
Overview Two formats are used by the Date and Time edit controls and by the Calendar controls: - The format of the displayed value (called input mask): this format is used to display the date or the time in the edit control.
- The format of the value returned by the program or transferred into an item.
If the input mask and the returned value are not identical, the conversion is automatically performed when saving the associated record. The format of returned value is typed in the window editor, in the "Details" tab of the description window of Date or Time edit controls. The MemoryFormat property is used to get and change the format of the value returned for: - the Date or Time edit controls.
- the columns of the Date or Time Table controls.
- Calendar controls.
- Static controls.
- the editable Combo Box controls.
- the columns of the Table controls displayed by Combo Box controls.
