Description

DisplayFormat is a String property which specifies a format string used for displaying the value of a Field with the name in FieldName. Use of DisplayFormat in TColumn is consistent with its use in TField (and decendants), but can assign a value that overrides the default display format for the Field.

GetDisplayFormat is the read access specifier for the property. SetDisplayFormat is the write access specifier for the property. Changing the value in DisplayFormat causes the ColumnChanged method to be called when the column definition has been updated.
