You can format anything you want in a control by assigning a persistent field
and then implementing the OnGetText or OnSetText event handler for the TField.
Off the top of my head I don't remember which is which but I have used these
extensively in a project to do all sorts of things, like formatting time
without the seconds (which is displayed by default), letting users type .
instead of : and entering more than 24 hours into a time field.
One of the events is used for displaying and the other for editing.
