RE: How to display a field with invalid data?

Hi again!

Thanks for the replies. This works. But. :) My collegue says that there is a 
keyword - or creation parameter - which solves this problem without 
converting the data muself.

Unfortunately, he cannot recall what this keyword is, and I can't find 
anything in the doc.

Now my question is: Am I missing something or is my collegue wrong?

Thanks for judging :),
Andras
