PropertyGrid version 10.4.2 - VB6

I'm not able to see the "format" property working (I guess it does nothing).
Take a look at this simple code:


Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim Category As PropertyGridItem
Dim ItemNumber As PropertyGridItemDouble

    Set Category = PropertyGrid1.AddCategory("Category")
    Category.Expanded = True
    
    Set ItemNumber = Category.AddChildItem(PropertyItemDouble, "Item", 27.344)
    ItemNumber.Format = "%0.2f"
End Sub

I never get the correct numbering format. Codejock'example (PropertyGrid.vbp) has the same (wrong) behavior. What is wrong?

Thank you

Alberto

Hello,

Set .Value after you change format:

   ItemNumber.UseSystemDecimalSymbol = False
   ItemNumber.Format = "%0.2f"
   ItemNumber.Value = 27.344

Thx Oleg,

4 Years ago, and the Problem with .UseSystemDecimalSymbol = True is not fixed. How can I use "," as decimalsymbol?

Same Problem in C++
