Is this a BUG or a MASK problem?

   PROPERTY GRID:
I've noticed that if I load values from a database into the grid and the value isn't formated according to the MASK the grid will stay empty - Will not re-format the data - This is a big drawback, because if you have added many records to a database, say a phone number, and you later change the mask, whenever you display the "old" records the grid will simply not show anything... Am I missing something?
Item.SetMask sMask, sLiteral

	You can now use the Item.MaskedText property to get\set the values without the mask. So you could assign your phone bumber from your database as 1112223333 and it will be formated with your mask (111) 222-3333.
