I would like to use the VT_DATE type for a grid cell in order to take advantage of sorting by dates. However, I would like to use a custom format for how the date string is displayed in the cell. Is this possible? Thanks.

To follow up on this, here is the code that I was trying to use:
CString text = date.Format(L"%x\r\n%A\r\n%X");
pCellVariant->ModifyStyleEx(__EGCS_EX_WRAP_TEXT);
pCellVariant->_VariantAssign(date.m_dt, VT_DATE);
pCellVariant->TextSet(text, false);
I could get the formating to work by using just %x, but nothing beyond that.

We would recommend you use the CExtGridCellDateTime cell class for dates. It is more feature rich than CExtGridCellVariant. In any case, you can always customize the cell representation by overriding the CExtGridCell::TextGet() virtual method.
