Formatting converts objects to strings, usually for display purposes. OPC Data Client follows the design of formatting in the .NET Framework (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/26etazsy(v=vs.110).aspx ).

Certain OPC Data Client objects implement the IFormattable interface, and can therefore participate in formatting schemes provided by the .NET Framework – e.g. their formatting can be controlled by corresponding format specifiers in the String.Format method overloads. This appendix describes the formatting of OPC Data Client types that have this kind of support.
