sorry oleg, I did understand which functions you meant, but using these functions means I have to compromise my solution by formating the item.value using the closest vb alternative to that used/displayed by the control.

What I'd like to do is display/use the exact same formatted value the user sees in the ReportControl. So if one date item is formatted ddd dd/mm/yyyy and another is formatted yyyy-mm-dd, I am able to display the date (item.value) in the correctly formatted way so as not to confuse the end user.

Is this possible, or can it be added in future?

I mean you can use FormatDateTime VB function

 

FormatDateTime(Item.Value, vbShortDate)

FormatDateTime(Item.Value, vbGeneralDate)

I'd like to be able to access the visible value for all items displayed in the control regardless of type.

For date values, how can I convert the ReportCOntrolItem.Format string into a VB method?

if you need only datevalue, you can use VB functions.

How can I retrieve the formatted text for a ReportRecordItem?

In the ReportSample project, which has a formated date column, I cannot seem to get out the formatted date string using item.caption, item.Value or item.format

any ideas
