MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

1. Start 16-bit or 32-bit Visual Basic 4.0, or if it is already running, click New Project on the File menu.
2. Add a data control and a DBGrid Control to the Form1 form. Set the controls to the following properties:

      Control         Default Name        Property            Setting
      ---------------------------------------------------------------
      Data              Data1            DatabaseName        Biblio.mdb
                                         RecordSource        Titles
   
      DBGrid            DBGrid1          DataSource          Data1
   						

3. Right-click the DBGrid control and click Retrieve Fields. Note that the column headers are now set to field names from the Titles table.
4. Right-click the DBGrid control and click Properties to open the Properties page. Click the Columns Tab and choose Column1 (Year Published) in the Column list box. In the Number Format Combo box, enter ##. The "Year Published" field is of type Integer in the database. Click OK to close the Properties page.
5. On the Run menu, click Start or press the F5 key to start the program. The Year Published column still appears with four instead of two digits.
