Comments
Format is used to control the way that arguments print out. The format string may contain
conversion specifications that affect the way in which the arguments in the value string
are returned. Format conversion characters, flag characters, and field width modifiers are
used to define the conversion specifications.
Example
Format("0x%02X", 20);
would yield the string 0x14.
Format can only handle one value at a time, so
Format("%d %d", 20, 30);
would not work properly. Furthermore, types that do not match what is specified in the
format string yields unpredictable results.
