I should also add that Format() is just a structured way of  
converting a numeric value to a string. Using Format(), you can  
define how many characters are represented in a string. For example,  
if you changed Steve's example to "Format(d.hour, "0000"), it would  
display 0020:00:00 for 8PM. The Hour value of the Date Class is  
already in 24 hour format so no conversion is necessary. If you  
wanted a 12 hour AM/PM format you would be required to make this  
conversion in code for your display string.

There are further examples in the LR for the Format function.
