To not convert a format string, enclose it within single quotes:

'ddd' will not be converted, but day without quotes will become 23a6 for June 23, 2006,
so it should be enclosed within single quotes.


"Your TreeView component with the use of the Tree DB component are a real winner. I am using this with my CMS applications that allow the user to order the documents with a simple drag and drop. It's brilliant and my clients now have a more intuitive application."
