Parsing in Expression Columns

[Jack]

Hi there, I am using a radgridview and want to allow users to select a format for data within columns, testing this for dates I noticed that it wasn't working for expression columns that contain a string representation of the data rather than a type such as DateTime, if I make one using Now() or Today() the format string does appear to work, is there a way to parse data in an expression column into a datatype?

Solved the issue by adding custom expression functions
